I was surprised that I was
compos mentis enough to deliver a sermon this morning. I'm still quite groggy but I thought that I'd post it in case anyone was interested. I'll put most of it under a cut.
April 22, 2012 3rd Sunday of Easter
Sermon delivered at St. John the Evangelist, 10 AM.
First Reading: Acts 3:13-15,17-19; Ps: 4;
Epistle: 1 John 2:1-5;
Gospel: Luke 24:35-48 (Year B)
“And they offered him a piece of grilled fish, which he took and ate before their eyes.”
In the name of God, the one, the Undivided Trinity. AMEN.
If I look a bit tired, the reason is that I just returned on Friday from a trip to my family and friends in Massachusetts in the United States. This is the first trip out of the country I've taken in three years, and I really enjoyed it.
During my trip, I had a great lunch with a friend who is a columnist for the local newspaper. As my hometown possesses the best natural harbour on the East Coast of the United States, she took me to lunch at the local yacht club, to give me an idea about how the other half lives.
