Things are ALWAYS happening around St. PhilipÕs.
Here's just a sampling of some of what you might have missed.
Hang on to your hats – this oneÕs a doozy!
Sometimes itÕs either feast or famine around here with pictures.

and Christian enjoyed this special opportunity!

The Annual Wonderful
Wednesday/Advent Workshop took place December 3, 2008, in Miller Hall. In
preparation, the room had the following: a 9 foot tree
with only lights, and trays of tempting ÒrawÓ materialsÉ
And immediately busy hands set
to work. It was amazing to watch.
And behold! A beautiful Chrismon tree!
And, the evening concluded with the annual retelling of the ÒTraditions
of ChristmasÓ story, which reminds us of the meaning and truth of the symbols
of light, everlasting life, gifts, and peaceÉ.
