What’s Your Pentecost Image of God?

Father Harrison — Thu, 16 May 2013 20:36:45 +0000

Often, I suppose, it is more uncomplicated to imagine a Holy Spirit living, and breathing, and moving among us (here on earth) than it is thoroughly understanding we share our earthly space with Jesus and God as well. The reason I assume that could be true is all too often we attempt to conjure up images of God and Jesus in some sort of human form, (expect them to show up in the same manner) yet we accept the Holy Spirit as without human likeness with little disagreement. That’s a good thing. We’re on the right track. Join us for worship this Pentecost Sunday at 8 or 10 a.m. and hear more. Wear something red and plan to stay for pot-luck lunch!

He will!

Father Harrison — Sat, 11 May 2013 04:42:49 +0000

Rather than asking Jesus to “hear your prayer,” ask Jesus to pray for you, that you receive what you need to make you whole – ask Jesus to get down on his knees, fold his hands, close his eyes and pray to the father for you. Come to worship and hear more this Sunday, May 12.

It’s a promise. Join us this Sunday and hear more!

Father Harrison — Fri, 03 May 2013 16:55:43 +0000

The greatest promise known to human hearts is that God has not and will not ever leave us alone. God’s prophets, apostles, sages and martyrs, angels, archangels, sons and daughters, all religion’s saints, all of God’s “little ones” are assured of God’s continual (eternal) presence. And the human Jesus shed light on God’s promise again and again.

Mid-Day, Mid-Week Gathering

Father Harrison — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 21:12:37 +0000

A special invitation for you here – come join our Wednesday gathering for Healing and Holy Eucharist tomorrow, 12:10 p.m.

Let us pray …

Father Harrison — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 16:59:42 +0000

Good people of St. Barnabas Episcopal Church, pray as you can in the days ahead, where you are, as you are, as often as you can, for those who suffer from these most recent tragedies – the bombing in Boston and the accident that claimed 3 lives in the Glenwood Canyon this past Sunday.

Palms to Passion

Father Harrison — Fri, 22 Mar 2013 17:25:01 +0000

We can hardly wait (some of us) for the yearly celebration of Christmas, but Holy Week – that’s different. Some will skip the last supper, the betrayal, sentencing, mocking and flogging, the crucifixion and jump from the palms to “Alleluia-Alleluia.” Beginning with Jesus birth, (Christmas) up to today, (Palm Sunday) three months to the day, we have followed Luke’s take on Jesus’ life, his wanderings, and his purpose for our lives. This Sunday, we reach the sobering and brutal end of all that. Jesus warned us it was coming, we know the story well. Still, I wonder, did it have to happen this way? Do you ever wonder, did it have to happen this way? Come join us Palm Sunday, hear more, and be part of the story.

Evil, guilt, blame, judgment, mercy, suffering, tragedy, regret, sorrow, threat, all with a little manure stirred in; dependent on what you go looking for from church this Sunday (3-3-13) Luke’s story (13.1-9) ought to offer something for everyone. You are welcome here!

The marriage of John and Gianna

Christine — Mon, 22 Oct 2012 22:46:48 +0000

In a beautiful and moving ceremony, John McDermott and Gianna Pfauth were married during our regular 10:00 a.m. service yesterday. John sang part of his vows. After church, our regular coffee hour was tranformed into a wedding reception. It was a joyous occasion for all.
