So, when we lived in Lower Lincoln, outside of Fredericton, we didn’t go ...read more

    Friday of the 19th Sunday in course 2024 I looked up the first reading we just heard on a sermon website to which I frequently contribute, and discovered no sermons posted on the passage from the prophet Ezekiel.
