What's New with Wallace & St. Paul's

November 18, 2009

Posted by Wallace+

Martin Brothers enter Lane High School in Charlottesville, Sept. 8, 1959If you didn't see "Locked Out" on Monday night, on WCVE or WHTJ, I urge you to see it when it reairs this week. The University of Virginia's Center for Politics and WCVE partnered to produce this superb documentary on the collapse of "Massive Resistance" 50 years ago.

We celebrate what happened 50 years ago.

And, in the name of justice, in the name of respecting the dignity of every human being, let us press on!

Save the Date: Sunday, January 17, 2010
St. Paul's will host a FREE screening of "Locked Out," followed by a discussion. Pizza will be provided. More details to come!

SERMONS

Easter Sunday: The Rev. D. Wallace Adams-Riley

We come into the world, seeking relationship, and, seeking understanding.

LENT 2B

EPIPHANY 2B

To Bethlehem; to Bethlehem, we have come.

And, of course, this Christmas, tonight, and tomorrow, new memories are being made; a Carol sung, pure and exquisite; an old friend; warm, endearing words exchanged; a first Christmas for a new grandbaby; a candle lit, a face aglow, eyes agleam.

The Pointer’s Point

More than fifty times, in his published writings, Barth refers to the Grunewald image; and, indeed, usually, it is precisely in reference to John,  and John’s relation to the figure of Christ; as he points.
Barth (and Grunewald before him) understood John’s sole purpose to be to serve as a pointer to Christ, a reference to Christ, a witness to Christ.
