October 2, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Today we celebrate our Fall Founder’s Fest after the worship service. We don’t do a Homecoming Sunday here, because, well, you all were here through the summer, even if we are in smaller numbers physically present since the pandemic. The Homecoming,…
September 25, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. This past week we witnessed the funeral of a great woman of faith…two, really. Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, and Sheila Jackson, a member of our parish. The liturgy of the services for the State Funeral & Committal of the Queen…
September 11, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. It would seem a lot of things get lost these days. I say that because I can’t seem to find my keys anywhere, but had I put an Apple air tag on them…well, I might have had a chance. The fact…
September 4, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. When I was a little girl, I remember hearing in Sunday School that God is always watching us.

August 28, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. It is so good to be back here with you, and I am so grateful for the good care of Fr. Barry while I was away. Now, in the gospel we just heard, Jesus is heading over with a Pharisee on…

July 24, 2022: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. It is good to be back with all of you – or at least those of you brave enough to bear this insane heat. I pray many of you that are not here are watching from a cool and comfortable place. …
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…
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…
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!
