One All-Parish Service

9:00 am Morning Prayer – St. Luke’s Chapel

O Lord, make us have perpetual love and reverence for your holy Name, for you never fail to help and govern those whom you have set upon the sure foundation of your loving-kindness; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Grace and peace to you in this season of Pentecost. Pray for Ukraine.

Dear Rev. Osberger,

Old Wye Church still is a ‘Chapel of Ease’ in that it offers a place of rest to weary travelers, passing by on their way to and from the seashore.

We pulled off the road yesterday for a break, came to rest in your parking lot, and managed a makeshift tailgate lunch, cobbled together from leftovers in our cooler.

Refreshed, we took a self-guided tour of the historic church and grounds. Of course, the eighteenth-century chapel is both an architectural and spiritual masterpiece. But it is the Celtic cross in the back of the property, near the cornfield, that is the more powerful spiritual force. Its singularity, proximity to the elements, weathered appearance, and steadfast endurance affirms the hope of every pilgrim. Just seeing it standing there, alone with only its natural surroundings for adornment, imparts strength, strength for all our journeys.
