While musing about the fruit of faithfulness, the faithful servant in Matthew 25:14-28, and my Flying geese quilt, I started asking myself some questions. What’s does it mean to be a faithful servant? Who’s she being faithful to? Why does it matter to us? And ....

At this time of year, with graduations and end-of-school-year excitement,  my mind always travels back to those "last" days when I was young. There was so much anticipation of what was to come, what great things awaited, those things that were always just out of grasp and view. I ran across this photograph the other day. This was my graduation day from Vermont College in 1973. Mr. G and were just

A few weeks ago, when we were moving in and preparing for Holy Week services and the like it became obvious that there wasn't enough space on the altar for the addition of altar flowers.

Greetings in Christ! We are fast approaching the Day of Pentecost, in just one week, which will end the Season of Eastertide. And I find myself reflecting upon the texts from our readings from Ascension day, including tomorrow’s readings. For many, the lockdown has been a trying time for many reasons, and there is no end in sight.
