The Waters Overwhelm Us: A Call to Holiness

Sermons from Grace Cathedral

In this sermon preached by the Rev. Canon Anna E. Rossi, inspired by a summer storm and the mountaintop visions of scripture, we are invited into awe before the holiness of God. This holiness is revealed not only in overwhelming power but in justice, equity, and love. Echoing Moses’ transformation and Jesus’ transfiguration, Rossi calls us to be formed through prayer, community, and sacrament. Holiness is not for the mountaintop alone but sends us into the world for the sake of others. At the baptismal font, we remember our call: to live as consecrated people in God’s own mission. The...

Williams Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, CA July 13, 2025 11 a.m. Eucharist Amos 7:7-17 Psalm 82 Colossians 1:1-14 Luke 10: 25-37 Each time I hear this particular passage in the Book of Amos, I can’t help but think about the sculpture in Christ Chapel at Seminary of the Southwest in Austin where I attended graduate school. Sitting quietly by itself in the corner is a memorial to the life and work of Bishop John Hines, former presiding bishop and sometime Bishop of Texas.

Marching with God

Sermons from Grace Cathedral

Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, CA July 6, 2025 11 a.m. Holy Eucharist, Proper 9C In this homily, the Rev. Canon Anna E. Rossi draws from the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s 1957 sermon on Ghanaian independence to illuminate Jesus' words, "I watched Satan fall from heaven," as a metaphor for the fall of oppressive powers. Rossi's homily calls Christians to resist injustice not with violence, but through faithful, embodied action: crossing boundaries, building community, and stewarding creation. Echoing Paul, it urges perseverance in the work of the common good. The oppressor will not...
