Richard Hooker Day is Coming Up!


You may have not thought of Richard Hooker Day (November 3) as a day to look forward to ... but this year it looks as though it will be a day to both remember and celebrate. Stay tuned!




O God of truth and peace, you raised up your servant Richard Hooker in a day of bitter controversy to defend with sound reasoning and great charity the catholic and reformed religion: Grant that we may maintain that middle way, not as a compromise for the sake of peace, but as a comprehension for the sake of truth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

  1. I put him on the parish calendar with the photo of his stature with the gull. Several have asked me who he was. So much for Episcopal Church education.
