Take a listen: In this sermon at San Francisco’s Grace Cathedral yesterday, Assistant Professor of Old Testament, Rev. Yolanda Norton, reflects on “the cost of your calling” and the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

A Prayer for Epiphany Jesus, as we travel far and fast, Lead our minds back to the wise ones following your star; And forward to the day When all will see your shining light. Jesus, light of the world Let your bright star stand over the place Where the poor have to live; Lead our sages to wisdom and our rulers to reverence. O God, by the leading of a star You revealed your Son Jesus Christ to all peoples; Grant that your whole church may be a light to the nations, So that the whole world may come to see The splendor of your glory, And the vast expanse of your love. Through Jesus Christ. Amen. Adapted from the New Zealand Prayer Book

“Faith and family are the two major institutions that set you on a path toward great success,’’ said Cedric Harmon, the executive director of Many Voices, a social justice church movement that offers a transgender renaming service. “In the absence of one, the outcomes from individuals can really be quite devastating.”

The Norcal MLK Foundation (led by SFTS student Aaron Grizzell) is pleased to announce the 2018 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebrations (MLK2018) in San Francisco. The events take place January 12 - 15 with free activities* and new programs for all. Check the schedule here:

Advent Devotion: Love Will Show Up! In a season of goodwill - with so much ill will in the air - what is the meaning of Christmas? What do we mean when we say Merry Christmas?

Advent Devotion: This is My Body. Joy and pain can reside in the same moment. Christmas Eve contains both labor pains and joyful exclamations from angel choirs. Just like life.

Advent Devotion: Watch for the possibility of the world turning, as we open our hearts to the eternal light that now shines in the darkness
