World Mission Sunday
Today is World Mission Sunday. We had a guest preacher and speaker: Tom Sansone, a lay leader from the Diocese of Connecticut whose home parish is working on building a residential school for AIDS orphans in Kenya. Tom's sermon was on the transfiguration. You can listen to it in our weekly audio of the entire service found on our Worship page, or if you would prefer to just go straight to the sermon, it can be found on our page of Archived Sermons.
After the service, the Outreach Committee provided lunch for Tom's talk. He spoke about his parish role in partnering with WIKS, a non-governmental organization in rural Western Kenya. WIKS stands for Women's Initiative for Knowledge and Survival. The organization is led by Kenyan native and Anglican priest, the Rev. Evalyn Wakusama, and has a joint US/Kenyan board. To learn more about WIKS, you may visit their website: www.WIKS.org
