During the months of May and June in the year 325, some 381 bishops in a fledgling new sect, on gossip and rumor, gathered in a Roman province that is now part of Turkey. The Emperor, Constantine the Great, called the men together, including Santa Claus, to resolve a growing schism. We are still repeating and debating their work today. Join us on Sunday, around 9:15. You may be surprised by what you discover.
Worship is like a drama: The clergy, ministers and musicians are the prompters, the people are the actors, and God is the audience.
- Søren Kierkegaard
At St Benedict we celebrate with awe and obligation in a construct called liturgy. Liturgy is a Greek word that means “the work of the people.” Our services are focused through scripture reading, song, prayers, preaching, and the liturgy of the table, known also as Holy Eucharist.
