9am Holy Eucharist Sermon, The Rev. Kristin Kaulbach Miles: "What We Can Touch"

“Shepherds do all their work alone with no one to see them, so we know that when we hear about one, it is signaling a person of integrity.”

This morning Mother Kristin invites us to consider caretaking in its most tactile, elemental form. From a young David tending his sheep, to Jesus digging in the mud with a blind man, today’s scriptures serve as a reminder that even the youngest among us can grasp: when we care for what we can touch – from the earth, to animals, to the put upon – we are touching the place “where God dwells.”  Watch her homily from March 19 here. The readings are 1 Samuel 16:1–13; Psalm 23 and John 9:1, 6–17, 35–38.
