Wellshire Presbyterian Church Sermon Archive

In her farewell sermon at Wellshire before retiring, the Rev. Dr. Pattie Kitchen discusses how in a season of glorious silver bells, God beckons us, tarnished and all, to a dusty manger So, come, you who have much faith and you who have little, you who have been here often and you who have not been for a long time, you who have tried to follow and you who have failed (Iona). Referencing Leonard Cohen's 1984 song Hallelujah, Dr. Kitchen expounds on how in world history and in our pews today, we're surrounded by broken halleljuahs God meets us at the manger of our baby Savior, where our brokenness can become a life-changing hallelujah.
