Christ Church of Hamilton & Wenham

You're welcome to The Rev. Dr. Ali Lutz' final services as our bridge priest at 8:00 & 10:00.

Abraham runs to welcome three strangers with lavish hospitality, and discovers he is entertaining the Lord, who fulfills the impossible promise that brings laughter to Sarah’s lips, because nothing is too wonderful for God. Paul traces the arc of that same grace; justified by faith, we stand in hope that does not disappoint, because God’s love was poured out for us while we were still sinners. Jesus looks out at the harassed and helpless crowds with compassion, and sends his disciples out to do what he has done — proclaiming, healing, and giving freely what they have freely received. We are that church, called still to proclaim truth with boldness and minister justice with compassion, trusting the Spirit to speak through us.

The collects for the first part of the Season after Pentecost were designed by Summerlee Walter, communications coordinator at the Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina. During her 15-year career as a communicator in The Episcopal Church, she has helped more than 130 churches and dioceses build and refine their communications strategies and channels, invite their communities in, and spread the Good News.

Summer is often seen as a time to slow down - and while rest is good, it doesn't mean our spiritual growth has to take a break.
You are welcome to Christ Church every Sunday at 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. for Holy Eucharist.

Grant, O God, that we may follow the example of your faithful servant Barnabas, who, seeking not his own renown but the well­being of your Church, gave generously of his life and substance for the relief of the poor and the spread of the Gospel; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
