Together in Faith: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.” Luke 6:20

As Christians, we embrace the mystery that God’s plan, revealed in Jesus, is being fulfilled at a time and way beyond our understanding. It may be a mystery but it surely includes our participation. As stewards, we are called to aid the poor and many others too. By our efforts, we help to bring the Kingdom of God into our world.

Bishop's Committee Parishioner Liaison: Every week there is an assigned member of the Bishop's Committee to serve as a Parishioner Liaison. We encourage parishioners to seek out this assigned member whenever there is a suggestion, question or concern. The liaisons will bring all comments to the monthly meeting of the Bishop's Committee to be addressed as appropriate. This week’s Parishioner Liaison is Ebele Ubosi.

Join Us for our Lenten Program: On Wednesdays during Lent, we will begin with Stations of the Cross at 10 am, followed by the healing Eucharist as usual.

This year’s Lenten Program is “Back to the Basics”, a comprehensive review of the bible and the Anglican tradition; vestments and vessels; church etiquette and protocols.

Together in Faith: When they had brought their boats to shore, Simon, James and John left everything and followed Jesus. Luke 5:11

They ‘left everything and followed Jesus.’ What a simple statement for such an incredible response! Obviously these three men were just blown away by Jesus, as would many others in the days to come. We too are called to respond to Jesus’ call… few will ‘leave everything’ but we can well ask: what is our response?

Together in Faith: Everyone spoke well of Jesus and were amazed at the gracious words that came from his mouth. Luke 4:22

Soon after these words of praise, the people of Nazareth changed their minds and tried to kill Jesus. During his ministry Jesus was frequently praised and condemned, and through it all, he strove to remain faithful to God’s call. His fortitude and persistence are examples for us to follow.

Together in Faith: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor.” Luke 4:18

Jesus becomes aware that God has called him to a certain task. That same kind of awareness can come to us at times as well. What quiet voice might be speaking in our hearts. What might God be anointing us to do?
