Friends,

The St. Luke’s vestry has a tradition that I have not seen in another Episcopal Church. In addition to opening our meetings with prayer and concluding the meeting with the Lord’s Prayer, we also offer the vestry a chance to share a spiritual reflection. I am consistently amazed at the spiritual depth of our Church. Several years ago, when we were still meeting online because of COVID, Matt Harding played a trumpet piece as his devotion, and the group was deeply moved. The music itself spoke for itself. When possible and when the member of the vestry consents, I would like to start sharing these devotions with you. Last month, I shared James Reily’s devotion, and this month, I share Megan Costilow’s devotion. These messages feed my soul, and I hope they feed yours as well.
