When Love Goes Public | Lent 5 Sermon | The Rev. Susan Astarita

As Lent comes to a close, Rev. Susan reflects on Mary’s bold and beautiful act of anointing Jesus—an intimate moment of love and faith shared in public. In a world full of distractions and expectations, this sermon reminds us that the small, heartfelt things we do—acts of kindness, forgiveness, compassion—can be lifted into God’s greater purpose. As we approach Holy Week, we’re invited to follow Mary’s lead: to put our love into action, and to let our faith be seen.📖 Scripture: John 11–12📍 Recorded at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church, Del Mar🙏 Subscribe for weekly sermons, reflections, and more!
