Proud and grateful to say that we are Episcopalian.

An excellent personal message from Bishop Kevin, reflecting on recent comments about the City of Baltimore. And the implications of Jesus' life and message.

An important and thoughtful article.

We will, with God's help!

OK, for the people at St. Barnabas who did some theological wrestling about the Trinity yesterday...try this!

HAPPY ST. BARNABAS' DAY, EVERYONE! Celebrating the feast day of our church and of this amazing saint. Join us on Sunday, June 16 at 10:00 for our parish celebration of St. Barnabas, with Eucharist, followed by a potluck picnic. Bring picnic goodies to share! We're gathering at the brick pavilion, in the park in Kutztown.

We are well into Holy Week, for Christians the most sacred season of the year. Make time this week for prayer and contemplation. Good Friday Service, April 19, 6:30 p.m. Easter Sunday Service, April 21,10:00 a.m. Bring a bell to ring with joy!

Very worth watching to hear Bishop Kevin's moving sermon.

A wonderful explanation of the mysteries and drama of Holy Week.

We'd love to have you join us. There is still room.

May the Holy One be with those who are mourning and with those who have been injured. May those who have died find blessed rest. And may God turn the hearts of each of us from hate.

One of the most profoundly challenging statements I have ever read! Be like God!

This coming Sunday, February 17: Annual Meeting and retreat time following the 10:00 Eucharist. Brunch, too! A time to look back at 2018 and plan for the excitement of 2019. All welcome! Bring a goody to share.

A new video series coming from the Episcopal Church about The Way of Love. Watch it!

Wishing you all a New Year full of faithful joy, spiritual and physical health, and all you need to thrive. New Year's Blessings! Pondering grace here... http://athellaiconstudio.com/making-grace/

Tidings of Great Joy! Only 5 more hours till our candlelight Christmas Eve service, 7:30 p.m. O come, all ye faithful. And, veiled in flesh, the Godhead see!

HAPPY NEW YEAR--from the church's point of view. First Sunday of Advent, service at 10:00. Advent Litany, beginning of the season of joyful and hopeful waiting.

Tomorrow is the last Sunday of Pentecost, the Feast of Christ the King. In these difficult times, how do you deal with the idea of KING?

Just one week ago we said our final farewell to our dear friend John "Tobi" Tobin. His memorial service was by turns-- sad, emotional, humorous--a goodbye and a celebration. John was a kind, faith-filled and generous man, energetic and humble, intelligent, caring and often just plain silly. Like many small congregations, our faith community would frequently struggle with the question of how to move forward, how to hear God's call and know what it was we were being called to. Tobi was always the voice of encouragement, urging those of us with weaker hearts on to new challenges, seeing light and opportunity when others were ready to quit. This past week I've found myself singing a song that was recorded by Pete Seeger and Arlo Guthrie, called Precious Friend. https://youtu.be/9NmWkJXGfYs I know Tobi loved music and though Pete Seeger never came up in any of our conversations, I think the two of them would have gotten on famously. I like to think that they're sharing a laugh and a song right now. So here's to you precious friend. Thank you for all you gave to everyone around you and the light you still shine into the recesses of our hearts.
