 | The Very Reverend Sam Candler |
We burned up some fat last night. Actually, we did not exactly burn it up. We fried batter in it, made pancakes with it, and then ate the result. We consumed it, lavishly and wildly. Pancake suppers, with lively children of all ages, with beads and costumes and craziness, are one of the highlights of fat parish life. "Mardi Gras" means Fat Tuesday, and we were phat last night. read more. |

I teach
because I believe that children should be taught from a very young age that they are deeply loved by God. Every Sunday in children's chapel, I am fortunate to see and hear the children praising God and making a joyful noise. Telling them the stories of Jesus and teaching them about God's love is a gift for which I give thanks!
I pledge
as a way of expressing my gratitude for the vibrant life that my family experiences at this church. I am thankful for the relationships that we have here and for the opportunities that we are given to serve. It is a privilege to support not only the many activities that enrich our lives but also the people who stimulate our thoughts and nourish our spirits as we come together each week to worship God.
