Latest Sermon

 
What keeps our lamps burning when the wait is longer than we expected?
 
As the church year draws to a close, the Rev. Álvaro Durán reflects on Jesus’ parable of the ten bridesmaids (Matthew 25:1–13). In the wake of the elections, he asks how we can put our convictions into practice, hold our leaders accountable and care for our neighbours long after the headlines have moved on. As the year is coming to an end, it is time for taking stock.
