St. Mark's New Canaan

09.28.25 "Eternal Life Is Not a Destination" - The Reverend Elizabeth Garnsey

St. Mark's New Canaan

The Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost. 

Eternal life is not a far-off promise, but a way of living here and now. Drawing on the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, Rev. Elizabeth reminds us that God’s kingdom begins in the present moment. Eternal life is lived when we open our eyes to those in need, bridge the chasms of injustice, and embody daily acts of kindness, mercy, and love.
