St. Andrew’s Anglican

At St. Andrew’s Anglican Church, we know that we all face losses in life. How we find meaning in those losses is critical to our ability to turn around and move in a new direction. It may come as a surprise to know that “turn around” is the meaning of the word “repentance,” the theme running through this Sunday’s readings. In her sermon, “Why I’m Wearing Capris to the Cathedral,” the Rev. Robbin del Nagro talks about how God’s love helps us turn around when we face losses and find new paths to life and joy.
