Calling Process Update

Our Congregational Survey process has now completed.  We also held a successful Congregational Listening Session with Diocesan Canon to the Ordinary Gwynn Lynch on Sunday March 27.
The next step is the preparation of the Parish Profile.  There will be two versions - a short form version which follows a prescribed format and will be submitted to the Office of Transition Ministry (OTM) and a longer version which will be available on our website.  More information will be made available when we have a draft.  
​

Please donate today! We ask for your continued compassion and donations to support the BMA at the end of this 2022 tourist season, as our local workers face reduced paychecks over the summer. ***Donations can be made at the BMA website: https://borregoministersassociation.org/.
***Contributions can also be sent to BMA, PO Box 2183, Borrego Springs CA 92004.

Reception of Michael Plekon as an Episcopal Priest

As most of you undoubtedly know we were very pleased that on March 27 Bishop Susan Brown Snook was at St. Barnabas to formally receive Michael Plekon as a Priest in the Episcopal Church.  Michael was "received" and not re-ordained because he has been ordained twice previously - once in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America and once in the American Orthodox Church - and has actually already been a priest for forty (40) years.  This is something that Michael has chosen to do solely to assist St Barnabas in our current time of transition and beyond.  
​We are very happy to welcome Michael formally as an Episcopal Priest and as a continuing member of our community.

The St Barnabas Vision Statement
“As a community, we are devoted to building a harmonious, fully inclusive, group of loving Christians who are engaged, passionate and spiritually healthy.  Jesus himself set an example of service, which St. Barnabas will use as the basis for making a compassionate impact in the community and the world.  With the guidance of the Holy Spirit and our resourcefulness, we believe we will be able to accomplish our vision.”
