Thirty-Second Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year A: Ten Virgins- Bring Your Own Oil

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 13, 2023

“The trumpet, scattering its awful sound. Across the graves of all lands, Summons all before the throne. Remember, gentle Jesus, that I am the reason for your time on earth, do not cast me out on that day, When the damned are confounded, and consigned to keen flames, call me with the blessed.”

God Who Gives Us Victory

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 24, 2025

Sermon # 37 - Excuses People Give Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 27, 2024

We read in Jonah 4:2, “And he prayed to the LORD and said, “O LORD, is not this what I said when I was yet in my country? That is why I made haste to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and relenting from disaster.” ...read more
