Hundreds of people attended Advent for Everyone, an online teaching series held over four evenings in December with Bishop Andrew Asbil, Bishop Riscylla Shaw and Bishop Kevin Robertson.
“I was very pleased that new parishioners who don’t usually come to my Advent, Lent or bible studies came out for this one,” said the Rev. Bonnie Skerritt of St. Paul, Lindsay. “It was well received and folks participated well in the conversations, answering the questions the bishops posed.”
St. Paul’s was one of the 14 churches that hosted a watch party during the series. At St. Paul’s, 12 people gathered on site, with others joining online from their homes. “It was clear to me that my parishioners wanted to hear from the bishops and to learn from them,” says Ms. Skerritt.
