Good News, Green News: A Christmas Note

January 04, 2011, People of St. Paul's (42), Food for the Soul (55)

Posted by Kimberly Allen

On this Eleventh Day of Christmas, we pass along to you (with permission) this friendly note from Amy Grigg about attending Christmas worship at St. Paul's:

Good morning, Rev. Adams-Riley,

Christmas was made richer for my daughters and me by attending the Christmas day service at St. Paul's. Later in the afternoon I paged through the New York Times and saw the following editorial with recipes for the Christmas tree. Perhaps you saw it, but if not, I've attached the link below.

Thanks for sharing, Amy!

Transforming Christmas trees into a cooking spice... what a perfect entry for St. Paul's "Food for the Soul" blog category!

We hope to see you and your daughters again soon.

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.
