The Mission is
collecting recipes so we can put together a cookbook. They would like to
be able to include a recipe from every church in Southern Virginia.
Recipes should be e-mailed to info@missionoftheholyspirit.org, and we'd like to have the name and home church of each recipe author.

Lenten lock-in for middle schoolers
On March 1-2,
there will be a Lenten Lock-in for middle school students at Eastern
Shore Chapel, Virginia Beach. As Lent begins middle school youth are
invited to travel briefly on the road with Jesus. This reflective
evening offers large group activities and small group workshops. (Art,
music, drama and prayer.) Eucharist will be celebrated. This
lock-in will help middle school youth to focus on Lent through a series
of "fun-but-reflective" activities. There will also be time to play
and get to know each other. Groups have the option of leaving after
Eucharist (around midnight) or spending the night.
Jesus said "take
nothing for the journey" but please bring sleeping bags, toiletries, and
$5 for breakfast and supplies. Each church is asked to send at least
one adult leader. Click here for this event on Facebook. Share it! Click here for an event flyer.

Renaissance era. Hailed by the New York Times as "the rock
stars of Renaissance vocal music," the Tallis Scholars have produced
dozens of recordings, receiving the highest critical acclaim across the
globe. The Tallis Scholars will perform two sacred concerts
(identical programs), one to be held at the Falls Church, Falls Church,
on Tuesday, March 19 at 7:30 p.m. and the other at St. James's,
