2023 Summer Spirituality Series at St. Peter’s, Lewes all programs start at 7:00PM in the Parish Hall King’s ice cream to follow! June 15 The Rev. Jerry Ray Anderson, Memoirs of An AIDS Chaplain Fr Jerry Ray, a retired Episcopal priest, will share reflections from his book, “Ordained by Angels: Memoir of an AIDS Chaplain” and his experiences as a priest, chaplain, and caregiver during the time of the AIDS crisis long before “coming out” in the Church was acceptable. As NPR radio host Diane Rehm has written -- "The start of the AIDS crisis created deadly problems the public chose to ignore for several years. But one man . . . recognized early on the dangerous world in which gay men were living. . . By his efforts and with his enduring spirit, he stood by those who were sick and those who died. In his new book, he takes us on a journey through his own life experiences, growling up in a conservative religious environment, coming out as gay man, his struggles with alcoholism, the loss of friends and lovers, and ultimately to a place of healing and a new beginning, A courageous and painfully honest account of one man's life as a priest during a perilous time in our history." Copies of the book will be available for $25.00, payable by cash or check. It is also available through Amazon. Fr. Jerry is being hosted by his long-time friend and our fellow parishioner, John Michael Sophos.
