Sam Wells Will Guest Preach This Sunday

Sun., 11/23, 8 am & 10 am (also livestreamed), Church

It is with great joy that we welcome The Rev. Dr. Sam Wells as our guest preacher on Sun., Nov. 23. Wells, a priest in the Church of England for over thirty years, is a prolific author of nearly 50 books, a brilliant preacher, and a highly regarded theologian gifted in bridging the gap between academic theology and practical ministry. Sam has served in London as Vicar of St. Martin in the Fields in Trafalgar Square since 2012, and before that post was the Dean of Duke Chapel in North Carolina at Duke University for seven years.

Sam will also join us for lunch on Mon., Nov. 24, from 12-1:30 pm. Sign up to join here.

The Feast of Stewardship

Though the season of stewardship will soon give way to Advent, the ministry of stewardship is ongoing. God is always creating, Christ is always redeeming, the Holy Spirit is always sustaining. As faithful disciples, we are always giving thanks to God and always offering our best gifts to further the work of the Church.

If you have already made your pledge, we thank you! If you have yet to make your pledge, we welcome that commitment at any time in the days and weeks ahead.
