Rev Ann Fox
Description

On October 27th, Rev Ann Fox joins us for Sunday Service. Her Sermon is "Bridging (or Healing) the Political and Religious Divide". Even if we close our eyes and ears tightly, we cannot shut out for long the cacophony of political dissent that surrounds us.

"Sacred Hospitality"

Katie McQuage-Loukas
Description

On October 20th, Katie McQuage-Loukas will join us with a sermon titled "Sacred Hospitality". In modern usage, we tend to discuss hospitality in terms of meeting the stranger, of welcome, and with a great emphasis on etiquette and host duties. It is this, of course, but it is also much more. Pre-Christian traditions treated hospitality as an ongoing, perpetual endeavor, applicable to establishing new relationships, but also to renewing and strengthening existing ones.
