On March 12, 1994, the Church of England ordained its first female priests. As we see in today’s Gospel reading, the call to serve is extended by God to all and not to be denied according to human categorization.
Namaste! Amen!
The Readings
Isaiah 58:9-14
Psalm 86:1-6
Luke 5:27-32
Jesus went out and saw a tax-collector named Levi, sitting at the tax booth; and he said to him, ‘Follow me.’ And he got up, left everything, and followed him.
Then Levi gave a great banquet for him in his house; and there was a large crowd of tax-collectors and others sitting at the table with them. The Pharisees and their scribes were complaining to his disciples, saying, ‘Why do you eat and drink with tax-collectors and sinners?’ Jesus answered, ‘Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; I have come to call not the righteous but sinners to repentance.’
