From the Rector

Dear Parishioners and Friends,

I recently saw a quote from Bishop Mariann Budde on social media. The bishop asks, "What is the faithful task that is before us today?" We know that being disciples of Jesus is a lifelong vocation, not just something nice to do on Sunday mornings. Each day we step out into the world, and no matter how mundane our "to do" list is for the day, there is always something faithful to be done--a helping hand extended, a promise kept, and showing up are just some examples.

I would like to invite you to think about being faithful in the long term and how your witness can go on after you leave this earth. Please join me in welcoming James Murphy, Director of Major Gifts and Planned Giving for Episcopal Relief and Development, as he talks to us about "Making a Planned Gift". Planned or legacy giving is an important aspect of your personal stewardship and can take many different forms such as a bequest in a will, a Trust, life insurance beneficiary, a charitable gift annuity, and many other opportunities.

Jim will be with us on Sunday, September 7 after the service in Bentley Hall. I hope to see you there.

Blessings,
Father Rick

Congratulations Elizabeth!
