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 Rev Katheryn M King tells the Jesus story from Mark of a righteous man also known as “The Rich Young Ruler” who is eager to do the right thing for eternal life. Jesus who loves the man only as God can do, asks him to sell all and then follow Jesus. Are we willing to give it all, transform our heart and soul, and make God the center of our life?

Lord, we pray that your grace may always precede and follow us, that we may continually be given to good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
