One Of Our Own In The News!
“If We Can Keep It”
July 3, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Now, I love that bit St. Paul writes in this closing of his letter to the Galatians – “See what large letters I make when I am writing in my own hand!” Hilarious! Apparently, there is a reason scribes are used…
“Bad News On The Doorstep”
June 26, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Where to start? At the end? At the beginning? Somewhere in-between? The last six weeks have been an avalanche of news across the nation. Men, women, and children shot dead in church, while shopping for groceries, while in school. Legislation was…
“What Are We…?”
Trinity Sunday – June 12, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Well, we all hoped to be outside today for our Mass on the Grass…with Brass! (well… we still have the Brass!!) Still, our church, I think, is one of the most beautiful anywhere – its stunning neo-gothic stonework,…
“What Is This Holy Spirit Thing?”
The Feast of Pentecost – June 5, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Today is one of the most important Sundays of the Church.

“Chapter Two – Again”
May 29, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s be heard. Amen. I just cannot comprehend… Like all of you – it is so hard to imagine what has happened in just a few short weeks. Last week I was preaching about our calling in the wake of the horrific racist violence in Buffalo…
“Crazy Street & Goin’ Upstream”
May 22, 2019: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s alone be heard. Amen. So good to see so many of you on this very hot weekend. And isn’t it appropriate that our gospel reading features a pool? I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t mind having one right now to dive into, right? …
“That’s Crazy!”
May 1, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. I saw a picture of a church sign somebody Tweeted– I won’t say the denomination – but it said “Pretend it’s still Easter and come to church this Sunday!” Pretend? Folks – we all know it is still Easter! It always…
“Be Like Thomas”
April 24, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s be heard. Amen. “Χριστός Ανέστη!” “Αληθώς Ανέστη” “Καλό Πάσχα!” “Christ is Risen!” “Truly [he is] risen!” “Happy Easter!” to all our Eastern Orthodox sisters and brothers in Christ, who today are celebrating Easter Sunday. We especially remember those who are celebrating this most Holy day…
