The Diocese of Missouri is hiring a part-time digital projects manager to assist the Director of Communications in the Offices of the Bishop. The main focus of this position will be to boost the social media and overall digital presence of The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri. Additional communications duties will be assigned according to the person’s skills and experience. Rockwell House is the Episcopal Campus Ministry in St. Louis. While we primarily serve the campuses of Washington University and Saint Louis University, we welcome all local college students as we seek to build a community of Christian disciples. We are seeking a full-time college chaplain, beginning summer 2021. The purpose of these grants is to provide financial assistance to congregations for capital maintenance and/or repairs. Applications for 2021 grants are available now and must be submitted by April 15. The Diocese of Missouri offered an uplifting virtual celebration of the life and ministry of Absalom Jones, which featured Presiding Bishop Michael Curry and other Black bishops in the Episcopal Church in an inspirational reading of Maya Angelou’s poem, Still I Rise. A solemn poem by John Donne is turned into a beautiful confessional hymn, perfect for the Third Sunday in Lent. What is vision? And why is it important for our diocese? Members of the Strategic Visioning Committee are grappling with those questions as they work to develop a new visionary path for our diocese. This week's hymn focuses on the costliness of devoting your life to Christ, as explained by Robert Lehman, organist and choirmaster at St. Michael & St. George in Clayton. Glory of These Forty Days, #143, is an excellent choice for the first Sunday in Lent. The Rev. Brooke Myers explains why in this new weekly column. Our strategic visioning consultant discusses details of the process and timeline of our planning project. Deaconess Anne House invites you to participate in the (best ever) Lenten devotion of Lent Madness! Enter into Lent and learn about the Saints with us!
