Every Sunday we pray for the churches in the Diocese of New York and our local Sawmill Clericus.
Today Good Shepherd hosted the clergy of the Sawmill Clericus for a BBQ (ribs!).
All of the churches in the Clericus that have clergy (two are currently in transition with supply clergy and one is temporarily closed) were represented. We also welcomed Archdeacon Bill Parnell (Archdeacon for Mission in our Diocese – and he is a priest, “archdeacon” is a title) to our meeting.
The Sawmill Clericus is:
St. Mary’s in Mohegan Lake
Good Shepherd in Granite Springs
St. Andrew’s in Brewster
Holy Communion in Mahopac
Saint Luke’s in Somers
Saint James’ in North Salem
Saint John’s Church / Saint Paul’s Chapel in Lewisboro
Saint Luke’s in Katonah
Saint John’s in Pleasantville
Saint Mary the Virgin in Chapaqua
Saint Stephen’s in Armonk
Saint Matthew’s in Bedford
Saint Mark’s in Mt Kisco
Christ Church in Paterson
Please keep these churches and their clergy and members in your prayers.
PS – the ribs were well received!!! And the Archdeacon brought a rack of ribs back to the Cathedral for the Bishop!
