The tragedy of our current age is that so many of us have become so accustomed to the demands of empire that we mistake them for the demands of God. And yet, Jesus stands before us this morning with the same invitation he offered his first disciples: “You who are weary, take up your cross. Come and follow me, because my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Leave behind the endless sacrifices demanded by the kingdoms and the empires of this world. Choose instead the costly, but beautiful work of becoming fully human. For in losing the life the empire promises, we discover the life that God has been offering us all along. And my friends, that life is worth everything we have. From “True Life,” sermon preached by The Reverend Marcus George Halley, D. Min College Chaplain and Dean of Spiritual and Religious Life, Trinity College, Hartford, CT, on the Fourth Sunday after Pentecost, June 21, 2026.

“The point for Jesus is not to achieve success in every conceivable circumstance. Jesus acknowledges that bad things will happen: Brother will betray brother to death; You will be hated by all because of my name. Rejection and failure are not just possible, they are guaranteed. Jesus wishes only that his disciples not be deterred by their occasional failures. He wants them to keep cruising, to never stop moving, whatever lies ahead. The one who endures to the end will be saved.” From “Shake It Off,” sermon preached by the Reverend Peter Thompson, Priest-In-Charge, on the Third Sunday after Pentecost, June 14, 2026.

A look back at Children, Youth, and Families Sunday on June 7 at St. Bart's.
We celebrated the conclusion of the program year with a blessing for our children and youth at the 11 am service, heard a sermon from graduating senior Julia Leopando, and enjoyed our Slide into Summer party. The day also included The Forum with Dr. Rick Altice, Professor of Medicine and of Epidemiology at the Yale School of Medicine. We were delighted to welcome former rector the Right Reverend Dean E. Wolfe and Ellen Wolfe on Dean's first visit to St. Bart's since his retirement, and we offered our prayers and best wishes to Curry Brinson, Associate for Community Engagement, as he prepares to begin graduate studies at Freie Universität Berlin this fall.

Not being good enough is something that I think holds so many of us back, and it shouldn’t hold us back from connecting with Jesus, because that’s not what he wants us to do. If you believe that perfection is a prerequisite to being here, and something you need to continue to be here, you’re missing out on the love that you get from being here, from this community that I’ve grown up in.

Jesus asks us to walk in love. He doesn’t ask us to walk in perfection. He doesn’t ask us to strive to be the most perfect people or to be perfect to feel his love. And while I know that might seem like an obvious notion to some people, it’s still, I think, a really important message to hear, because there are so many of us who feel like we aren’t good enough to be here, like we aren’t what Jesus wants us to be, and that can’t be further from the truth.

from “You Don’t Have to be Perfect”, Sermon preached by Julia Leopando, Graduating High School Senior & Member of St. Bart’s Youth at the Center on the Second Sunday after Pentecost June 7, 2026.
