"Invitation to Pilgrimage"

Sermon by The Rev. Ranie Neislar

October 26, 2025

I'm about to tell you a story; I am a child of God, a wife and a mother and a priest in God's church, and I seek to soothe my own inadequacies by looking down on others; it's part of who I am a sinner."

"Instead of sinners and sin, let us be pilgrims navigating our search for a rich spiritual experience, because God celebrates pilgrims, and humility is the road map for our adventures as pilgrims."

"In humility, let us wonder at our own shortcomings with grace, make a gentle space within yourself to wonder, and we will watch our community become God's dream.
