2026 05 31 Trinity Sunday, Yr A – 1st Sunday after Pentecost – officiated by Fr. Colin Belton
« 2026 05 28 “Concert Against Cancer” folk songs led by Deacon Alan Hart, with Deacon Mary Carol Hart. Deacons Alan and Mary Carol have fought a battle for many years with cancer as a family so far successfully. Meanwhile, Mary Carol continues to receive chemotherapy treatment. They are passionate about “giving back” and decided to host two concerts to raise funds in support of the Charles R. Wood Cancer Center at Glens Falls Hospital. The first concert was on Tuesday evening at their own home church, St. Ann’s Episcopal church, Amsterdam, NY. Reportedly it was a successful evening attended by nearly 30 people, raising nearly $800. The second concert was held last night, Thursday, at St. Mary’s. Deacon Alan was our Deacon in the 2010 – 2012, and there is a strong, ongoing link with the Hart’s. St. Mary’s was delighted to host the concert. About the same number attended our concert and almost $1000 was raised. Fr. Colin was blessed to offer prayers for cancer survivors known to us; for those suffering from cancer; and for all those involved in treating and looking after those suffering from cancer. After the concert an amazing selection of refreshments and great fellowship took place in the Parish Hall. Hopefully, we will add a few comments about the concert for those who attended last night. Watchout for these on our Facebook page,
2026 08 16 The Feast of St. Mary the Virgin (Observed), Rite II, officiated by Dcn. Rick Littlejohn. St. Mary is our patronal saint, so we always give the Sunday nearest to the date of her feast priority. This year it was yesterday. Thank you, Dcn. Rick for leading and preaching an inspiring sermon. Each of us should regularly pray and ask God to let us know the purpose He has for our lives – as He did when the Angel Gabriel announced it to Mary. Yesterday was also the ECW’s Summer Bazaar. It was well attended and a great success. All the proceeds from the Garage, Bake and Lunch (about $1500) are donated to local charities the church, through ECW, supports, other than about $100 admin costs. Lunches served about 80 people and sold out!! »
