Easter V: What wondrous love…

From Sunday, April 24th: For the fifth Sunday of Easter, the Gospel reading from John 13 takes us back to the night before Jesus’ death.

Lent 2nd week, Wednesday

There was more snow last night, followed this morning by fleeting, sometimes sleeting rain. Lent is well underway. We chose as a focus for this season the lines from the Isaiah reading: “you will become like a watered garden” (Isaiah 58:11).
