Sundays at All Hallows (Sunday, October 8, 2023) Is Now Online

 

Welcome to Sundays at All Hallows.

In westernmost Kentucky October is harvesttime for farmers and gardeners—beans, cabbage, carrots, chard, collards, potatoes, sweet corn, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, winter squash, zucchini and summer squash. By Thanksgiving in late November, what can be harvested will have been gathered in. On some farms in the region, the fields will have been fertilized and new crops sown. Only the Amish farmers will have ploughed their fields.

A good crop is something to celebrate. In earlier times it meant food on the table during the cold months when food was in short supply. A poor crop, on the other hand, could mean hunger, starvation, and death. For a modern-day farmer it could mean going further into debt or even selling the farm.

Whatever the harvest may yield, harvesttime is a good time to give thanks to God for all his mercies, great and small.

Readings: Isaiah 5:1-7; Matthew 21: 33-46

Message: The Proper Fruit
