On Sunday, Ezekiel will remind us that the past does not bind us, and with God, renewal is always possible. The psalmist describes the renewal as humility and trust in God’s mercy. In the gospel, we return to the vineyard as Jesus tells a short parable about two children and their father's request. One refuses but eventually goes into the vineyard. The other agrees but never follows through.
It will be an exciting Sunday as we gather to ponder these lessons and hear our “Deacon in Training,” who will be preaching.
Until Sunday, when we will gather around God’s table,
Father Karl
