Greetings on a drizzly Palm Sunday. This past week we finally finished cleaning up the church yard; mulch laid, branches trimmed, and weeds pulled. Thank you to all who have helped prepare for next week. We took one last look, for a while, at Isaiah in today's formation class as we looked at the third Servant Song. It is refreshing to be reminded that God has been and will be with us throughout our entire life.
After a chilly procession of the Palms across the yard we walked through our journey of Palm Sunday and the Passion Gospel. I was tempted to let the Gospel and the whole day and not preach but I felt compelled to share a reflection about how Jesus' sacrifice was not in spite of his nature as God incarnate but because he is God incarnate. In doing so he invites us to give up a little of our humanity to become more like the Divine. Today's sermon, entitled "sometimes the story is the message" is appended. I invite your comments.
