Amazing magic was part of the evening.

Magic was afoot on Saturday evening of June 3 at the parish’s Spring Fling. Thank you to all who donated food and beverages, who gave of their time and gifts, and to those offering dinners so that the fund of one evening can continue. We are grateful to our younger members who worked as servers, and wasn’t the magician amazing? To all who contributed in any way. We raised approximately $4000, and as is our custom, 10% of that will go towards mission in the community beyond us. This year, the 10% will be shared with Harvest on Vine Emergency Food Pantry, the Harvard-Kent Leadership and Scholarship Partnership, and the BSAFE program at St. Lucas/San Lucas Church in Chelsea.

The throw depicts historic landmarks in Charlestown, including our own St. John’s.

This lovely “throw” was created by parishioner Rosemary Kverek.  Proceeds from the sale of the throw have been designated by the ECW (Episcopal Church Women) for the painting of our Parish House  as we celebrate 175 years of Episcopal ministry in our beautiful building in Charlestown, Massachusetts.

Throws can be purchased in person for $65 (with no shipping and handling charge) at the church by appointment:  617 242 1272.

Online orders will be shipped on Tuesdays and Thursdays by USPS Priority Mail. Tracking information will be provided when the package has been shipped.  Throws will be shipped individually and the $20 fee applies to each throw shipped. See below to place an order.
