Stay up to date!
From Sunday:
 
Today we are reading from the first Chapter of Mark's Gospel. Mark wanted us to see the radical, open, affirming Love of Jesus in the first healing in his Gospel.  Jesus radical act was to walk up and touch a leper. They were "untouchable", declared unclean, outcasts to all. But Jesus touched this man. Why? 
And what can we learn from what He did that day about Love?

En Agape',  
Rev. Michael Weeks
