Saying Yes

Image
Yesterday was a great day for the Church.  We welcomed the newest priest into the Anglican Communion: Rev. Kerry Mansir.  Church, you better be on your toes and at the ready, because this one is a mover and a shaker.  God is going to do amazing work in and thru her (in fact, God already has been). I had the privilege of preaching, and while I will not normally be posting sermons here, this one felt different.  So here it is, and just before it, a couple of my favorite photos of the day: Saying Yes Alright, time for a confession.  When Kerry mentioned we would be using the lessons for St. Fabian today, my mind went blank.  The only person with a name like Fabian that I could think of was the guy on the cover of all those romance novels that seem to overwhelm donation bins: Fabio Lanzoni. ​ So when I google searched Fabian, I  was pretty sure I was headed in the right direction until singer Fabian Forte showed up. Somehow, it did not seem this was the Fabian inspiring today’s lessons.
