Under Susan's leadership, the St. George's delegation raised $1110 dollars; the Outreach Committee matching brought St. George's total contribution to the Crop Walk up to $2110 - our largest ever! The total amount raised by all five participating churches was $4250.

Palm Sunday Family Eucharist

As we did last year, a real pony came to help in the re-enactment of Palm Sunday at the Family Eucharist in the Memorial Garden. This year, when rain interrupted the service, we moved it into the church, pony and all.

Photos by Nina Nicholson
On the weekend before New Jersey's same-sex "civil union" law took effect, St. George's hosted "Marriage Equality Weekend" as a reminder of the ultimate goal of gay New Jersey citizens (and of the straight people who cherish and support them). A concert, Love & Marriage Jazz, featuring church choir member Elaine St. George and her band, was held on Saturday night, February 17. On Sunday, February 18, Harry Knox, director of the Religion & Faith Program of the Washington D.C.-based Human Rights Campaign, spoke at a forum titled "Faith & Fairness: Finding Tools for Advocacy in Your Faith Tradition."
