The Holy Eucharist, 10:00 a.m.

Circumcised on the eighth day, a Hebrew of Hebrews, blameless under the law: Paul's pedigree in Philippians 3 is impressive, yet he counts it all as rubbish for the sake of knowing Christ. Preaching on the feast of St. Francis, Dr. Kerner commends a cruciform life with arms outstretched, recalling the San Damiano cross in Assisi and young people praying for one another for hours at Camp Weed. The sermon introduces a renewed ministry of healing prayer.
