Grace: It's Our Way of Life

As Episcopal Christians we
Worship at home daily and together weekly;
Study the Scriptures, our tradition, and what it means to be a disciple today;
Serve our families, our parish, and our world in the name of Christ.

Everything we do is done with an ethic of Welcome
because we are only here by Grace.

The Very Rev Daniel P Richard's sermon is based on Matthew's account of Jesus parable of the 10 bridesmaids and asks the question, "Are you ready for the Feast?"

Joshua 24:1-3a, 14-25

The Collect

O God, whose blessed Son came into the world that he might destroy the works of the devil and make us children of God and heirs of eternal life: Grant that, having this hope, we may purify ourselves as he is pure; that, when he comes again with power and great glory, we may be made like him in his eternal and glorious kingdom; where he lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen

Gratitude Reflection

This is the third in a series of reflections on gratitude as part of the Stewardship Ministry Team's Fall Emphasis Growing in Grace.

Jeff Tibbits, who normally attends the 800 am worshiping community on Sunday, is also a member of the Stewardship Team and shares his testimonial on faith and gratitude.  Good Job!
