I don't know what, if any preparation you might be willing to do for
our time together this week. I seldom request this. If you have an
opportunity read Luke 14:16-24 in preparation for our time together.
(Parallel texts are Matthew 22:2-14 and Gospel of Thomas 64.)

See what you think this story is about. Scholars say it is the most

the meaning of the story is but also its applicability to you. I'm
giving this title to what I want to say -

Here and There, Now and Then

Also, there will be no class on December 27 and just one service, at
10:30 a.m., at St. Paul's on that Sunday.

Much love,

Bill Kerley
