Preparing for Advent in South Salem

The Rev. Barbara Crafton led a retreat for the Brotherhood of Saint Gregory and members of Saint John's Church, South Salem NY on the eve of Advent 1. Her storytelling skills and gracious reflections were soul-nourishing and insightful, as she reflected on the significance of the vowed life to all Christians. In addition to Crafton's meditations, a reading from her imaginative revisiting of the Nativity story over lunch, and a fine sermon on separating the "good" fish from the "bad,"t he day included the Daily Offices, officiated by Brs James Teets and Christopher Stephen Jenks; a reading from the sermons of Gregory the Great; the Holy Eucharist celebrated by Br Tobias Stanislas Haller and Deaconed by Br Thomas Mark Liotta; healing touch sessions with Deacon Joanna Depue; a scrumptious lunch prepared by members of Saint John's Parish; and a chance to enjoy the new parish hall, and the surroundings, on a brisk but sunny fall day.

Annual Convocation

Annual Convocation was really all that the Brothers have said it was; a blessing and with the quiet and flow of Winter Convocation. I came home rested and energized and did not gain any weight! Thanks to all who made it what it was and I look forward to hosting the Province in September - the 22nd to be exact!
Richard Thomas, BSG
