Dear friends,
This next Sunday’s celebration we move into the Season After Pentecost. In the church calendar this is the final season of the year. In this season you will see all the vestments and altar hangings change to the color green. The green of this season reminds us of the growth that the kingdom of God brings when we partner with the Holy Spirit. Throughout the church year we have walked with Jesus through his advent, incarnation, epiphany, call to repentance, death, and resurrection. The Holy Spirit of Pentecost has come and now we have work to do. He sends us out to grow his kingdom in the world. It is the green growing season of the Church! I pray that during this green growing season the very nature of God and His grand mission may take root in you so that God’s kingdom might be found within you and in your midst!
God’s peace,
Fr. Paul
