Powhatan Day Of Mission: June 4

by Church Staff

Join Manakin and St. Luke’s on June 4 as we serve others within our own community during a day of mission. We will have breakfast at Manakin at 8:30 a.m. and then depart to our designated missions, including Shalom Farms, Powhatan County Library, Habitat for Humanity and the Food Pantry. Additional activities will include making fleece blankets for Powhatan Animal Control and conducting a roadside cleanup along 711 / Huguenot Trail (for ages 18+). After a fulfilling morning of mission, we will gather again for lunch at St. Luke’s. If you would like to participate, add your name to the sign-up sheet in Denny Hall or contact the church office.

2022 Lenten Program

by Church Staff

You are invited to join us during Lent as we explore the topic, “Walking with Jesus during Holy Week.” This year’s program brings together Manakin Episcopal Church and St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, with program locations alternating between the two churches. Through presentations, we will gain an understanding of the importance of each service during Holy Week. As we journey with Christ to the cross, the meaning of the services and music will become more relevant in our growth. All the services we discuss during this program will be offered at St. Luke’s, Manakin or both during Holy Week.

The program will include daytime, online and evening options.

In addition, to support your personal practices during Lent, we share Lenten Journey 2022 booklet.

This program will begin at noon and will be available in person and online. If you’d like to attend in person, please bring your own lunch. The program will conclude with Noonday prayers.
