Sunday

Usually, Sundays are the busiest day of the week for me, being a Lutheran pastor. With that said, it's refreshing to be on vacation and I even found a place to worship this morning. St. James' Episcopal Church.
Here's my wish list in finding a place of worship:
+ An organ
+ Lutheran or Episcopal church with liturgy
+ Communion (there must be communion)

Even though my list is short, it is amazingly hard to find a place to worship that has all there of these. Even so, I did well this morning and heard a professor for Princeton University preach. This church's new rector also has an English accent; perfect for Episcopal churches. A great choice in all. As I greeted the worship leaders and introduced myself, I learned that one of the professor's students is Baptist. I shared that I grew up Southern Baptist. She said, 'what a journey you've had.' How true... I wouldn't trade being Lutheran (discovering grace) for the world.
