Gospel First

from Sermons at The Episcopal Church of Our Saviour · host The Rev. Br. Richard Edward Helmer

In times of trouble, Matthew reminds us of the trouble of the Holy Family.

(The Second Sunday after Christmas Day - The Rev. Br. Richard Edward Helmer) Today's sermon opens with the words of the Rev. Dr. Antonio Gallardo, Rector of St. Luke's, Long Beach, and bishop-elect of the Diocese of Los Angeles. Matthew reminds us that Christ is born in a world rife with violence and uncertainty, underscoring a critical point about Gospel: Christ comes first for those who suffer and who struggle at the margins of the world. Today, we especially remember our siblings witnessing to the Gospel and the presence of Christ in Venezuela.
