Acknowledging our Relationship with Indigenous People of the Land
We acknowledge and pay respect to the Yavapai, Hualapai, Havasupai, Apache, Hopi, Navajo, and Ancient Peoples as the original inhabitants of the land and their role as custodians of this land given to them by our one and only Creator God. We commit ourselves to actively work alongside indigenous people for reconciliation and justice as we live into our Baptismal Covenant and respect the dignity of every person.
A Word from Our Interim Rector
Pastoral Calling
When I first started ordained ministry over forty years ago, it was expected that clergy would make regular home visits to parishioners. As a curate, my rector gave me a notebook with everyone’s address and I was expected to ring a certain number of doorbells every day—unannounced!
Maybe those days are gone, but I still believe that there is no better way to connect with parishioners than to spend some one-on-one time with them either in their home, at their workplace, or over a meal.
So I am asking your help in helping me in this important part of my ministry. I do not intend to intrude, rather to get to know you better as well as get your input about how the church can do a better job of meeting your needs.
So here is how it works: There will be a calendar at coffee hour each Sunday with available dates for the coming weeks. Just put your name and email next to a date and I will contact you before our visit time. If you would prefer, I will be glad to take you out to lunch—my treat!
You can also always contact me directly by email or phone (sedonabishop[at]gmail[dot]com, or 602.826-0316) especially if you are looking for another convenient time than those listed.
I’ve already had the pleasure of visiting many of you at home, but I know I have a long way to go!
I look forward to getting to know ALL of you better!
Walking a Labyrinth
Walking a labyrinth is an ancient spiritual tradition that invites each person’s quiet individual experience. There is no prescribed religious rite or activity. For some people the walk is a metaphoric pilgrimage. For others it provides peace, healing, or spiritual insight. Read more here.
