At St. Bart’s we realize that the Good News must not only be believed but also acted upon: together in community; through worshiping together; by sharing joys and sorrows in fellowship; and in doing ministry together in service to the wider world and our own community.
Defining your spirituality is a lifelong process that starts at Baptism. The people at St. Bart’s walk the path of spiritual pilgrimage together. We believe the Good News that Jesus Christ has died so that all of creation can be reconciled to God and to each other. Jesus’ resurrection is proof for us that new birth, which we experience in Baptism, is possible.

Wednesdays
Tai Chi/Prayer in Motion
5:00 - 6:00 p.m., with Kevin
Translated from Chinese, Tai means great and Chi means energy. It is a form of exercise resulting in relaxation, stress reduction, improved concentration and balance, self-confidence, self-control as well as a good source of meditation. These gentle, fluid movements are perfect for people of all fitness abilities who are looking to improve their well-being. We add a Christian perspective to this ancient Chinese martial art, as we seek to balance our prayers and exercise.
New students are always welcome to join the group.
Donation requested: $2/class, which is given directly to our Food Pantry
