UPDATE - May 4, 2024
Among fans, today May 4th is known as Star Wars Day as in, “May the fourth be with you “. George Lucas the creator of Star Wars based his story, especially the character of Luke Skywalker on the work of Joseph Campbell and his seminal work mining ancient myths for modern insight, “ The Hero’s Journey “. Jesus is more anti-hero than classical hero: he rides a donkey not a rocket; he uses his power to heal not to dispense righteous and often violent justice; and he empowers us with the power of his example, not an example of his power. Reverend Rebecca Hatch of Saint Alban’s Episcopal Church of Simsbury modeled this by asking the 26 heroes attending Church by the Pond for their insight on the Gospel reading. Afterwards Trinity Episcopal Church of Wethersfield provided 34 lunches . One guest exemplified heroic Christian behavior by sharing his lunch with two late comers...Submitted by Layleader Andrew May
