Palm Sunday

Hosanna! God Save Us Now!

April 8, 2020 by ReverendAmanda

I have always loved Palm Sunday and Holy Week, ever since I was a young child. I remember going to worship on Palm Sunday with my mother and brothers. We were in Sunday school from 9 to 10 then we would help clean up the rooms moving tables and chairs and folding up the retractable … [Read more…]

What Kind of Peace Do You Desire?

April 14, 2019 by ReverendAmanda

I am reading a fascinating book titled Savage Continent by Keith Lowe that focuses on the aftermath of World War II in Europe.

Cries of Hosanna

March 20, 2016 by ReverendAmanda

When I was a freshman in college back in the fall of 2001, I wanted to join the on campus choir but realized that it conflicted with another mandatory class I had to take. I was really upset about it. What was life going to be like without being in a choir? I had been … [Read more…]

Triumphal Entry

March 29, 2015 by ReverendAmanda

When I was a little girl, I looked forward to the Fourth of July parade Colchester had. It was always on a Sunday. I would go to church sitting in the choir loft with some of my church friends singing to the hymn sing and sometimes zoning out to the sermons. Rev. Dole would always … [Read more…]
