November 12, 2017: May God’s words alone be spoken, may God’s words alone be heard. Amen.

September 24, 2017: May God’s words alone be spoken, may God’s words alone be heard. Amen. What a week this has been for this parish – three funerals in the last eight days – two of them for women only 58 years old. What strikes me most about this is just how fragile this temporal…
[Our guest preacher was our Dir. of Music, William Davies. For more information about him, click here: Music. This sermon is thought provoking and prophetic. The use of images was integral, and so they are included. The audio (available below) appears to be longer than the sermon actually was. It was left on through the end…
September 10, 2017: May God’s words alone be spoken, may God’s words alone be heard. Amen. It is so good to be able to preach to the choir again…welcome back choir! Today, on this brisk Fall morning, we are gathering here at a time when others of our brothers and sisters down South and…
