The Parable of the Good Samaritan tells us all about the importance of being a good neighbor as Jesus commanded. And Bishop Greg Brewer will reinforce that message on Wednesday, Sept. 26, to youth at St. Barnabas Episcopal School, 322 W. Michigan, Ave., DeLand.
Brewer will speak at a 10 a.m. chapel service at St. Barnabas Church in DeLand. “Every month, they focus on the ‘Fruits of the Spirit’ and September is the month for love,” said Sarah Caprani, executive assistant to Brewer for the Diocese of Central Florida. “When you love someone, you help someone.”
