Tonight I was honored to be preacher at the Annual Service of Prayer for Christian Unity. There wasn't a large crowd but it proved to be a very nice service. 2008 marks the one hundredth anniversary of this celebration. It also came on the heels of the funeral for Bishop Daniel Hart, a great advocate for this service and all other ecumenical and interfaith events in our city. I mentioned that in my homily.Afterwards we enjoyed a nice reception and as Rev. Jim Rowe mentioned in his greeting, all Christians can gathered around food no matter what church they belong to.
Earlier in the day I represented our congregation at the Funeral Mass for the Bishop. It was a very nice tribute to a humble servant of God.
