FUNCTIONS - REGULARLY SCHEDULED EVENTS

every Monday. The first Friday of the month meets for an early evening
of wine tasting at Wine Works on upper St. Paul St. in Downtown Burlington.

and Thursdays at the Russell Farm in Hinesburg, 6-8pm. FMI: www.vgsa.com
- St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral: 2 Cherry Street, at the corner
of Battery has long been a place which creates a place at the table
for GLBT Christians. We understand that the larger Christian church
often joins the secular world in closing its doors to our GLBT sisters
and brothers. We seek to offer a bridge between the painful experiences
of GLBT Christians and the life-giving love of God with the introduction
of a support group for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning
members of the St. Paul's community, residents of Burlington and beyond!
The second Wednesday evening of each month, from 5:00 to 6:30 pm, we
gather in the Small Conference Room for a time of conversation, support
and prayer. No advance sign-up is necessary. ALL ARE WELCOME!
