Preparation scripture: Genesis 12:1-3, Hebrews 11:32-12:2
As light through a stain glass window projected a rainbow of color across a sanctuary wall and the congregation within, Ed McNulty was moved by the effect and the symbolism of this magic moment. It was as if God's loving presence was effecting each one present in a unique and diversified way, while inviting each to go out into the world and express this love in their own diverse way. As the stained glass served as a refractor of light (a symbol of God), each individual became a reflector of this magic moment. And, as such, became a Saint (one called upon and set apart by God) to welcome the stranger.
