A Note From Father Rob
This Sunday is a milestone on our Lenten journey: We have reached the half-way point! Half of the season of Lent is behind us, and we can see, just on the horizon, a sliver of light that is the Easter promise.
From The Desk Of Deacon Judy
Over these many decades of my spiritual journey, I find that the simplest phrases become theological reflections. SPRING FORWARD has made me ponder its meaning for my life.

Wilderness Times - Grief
Grief grabs us in a range of emotions. It can be an unsettling time of inertia or of endless wandering – perhaps both.

A Note From Father Rob
I’m really not much of a hiker. Really. It’s not that I can’t hike or won’t; it’s just not something I think of doing very often. But when I do think of it and get up, go outside and hike some of the trails around Lake Martin, I am always rewarded with views or experiences of nature that feed my soul.

A Note From Father Rob
Some twenty-eight years ago, I went to our diocesan church camp, Camp McDowell, for the first time. It was love at first sight! Since then, I have been to Wonderful, Wonderful, Camp McDowell countless times.

This Sunday’s Gospel tells the story of Jesus healing Peter’s mother-in-law. It got me thinking of my mother-in-law – Fay Falkner Quick.

A Note From Father Rob
Well, this is an election year, so I would like to talk to you all about elections and government. No, not national elections and government but parish elections and government.
From The Desk of Deacon Judy
We know the story of Paul, how Jesus got his attention on the road to Damascus, how Jesus zapped him blind, how the scales fell from his eyes, and how he saw life in a new way.
