Rev. Ken Schmidt

Deacon Ken asks, “What does Jesus command us do?”  Jesus’ second Great Commandment instructs us to love God, and to “love your neighbor as yourself.” Do we truly love and accept ourselves with all our faults and imperfections?

Rev. Eleanor Terry

The Episcopal church calls us to follow Jesus through prayer, worship, proclamation of the Gospel, and by promoting justice, peace, and love. Rev. Ellie notes that prayer comes first in that list. What exactly is prayer? Why is it foundational to being a Christian?
