Interested in a Pilgrimage to Turkey in 2026?Inquiry Meeting after Church THIS Sunday January 12 According to the Acts of the Apostles, Paul’s conversion to Christianity took place in a profound, life-changing experience on the road to Damascus. We embark on an unforgettable journey to retrace the footsteps of Paul through Turkey and Greece to discover firsthand the sights, sounds, and feelings that he may have had as he taught about the life and works of Jesus Christ. We’ll see the seven churches of Revelation “which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.” As we walk where Paul walked, perhaps we too will have profound, life-changing experiences on ‘the roads’ of these ancient lands.

Even Egypt! A Sermon for Twelfth NightOn the Holy Family's Flight Into Egypt In her sermon for the Second Sunday after Christmas, Mo. Storm reminds us (a) that it's still Christmas!, and (b) that the Holy Family's flight into Egypt is a story rich in meaning and lore. This is her first time preaching on this reading, which comes up very seldom, and she enjoyed delving into the various meanings it holds for us in the world we live in today.
