Los Alamos Jewish Center News:
The Jews have been called “The People of the Book” but more aptly, we should be called the People of the Books! And what better place to learn about many of the books associated with the Jewish people than Los Alamos’s Mesa Public Library?
Rabbi Jack Shlachter will be facilitating a three-part series on consecutive Monday evenings at the library, starting on June 15, highlighting books in the Jewish canon. For all three sessions, the first 15 minutes will be refreshments and informal socializing, Read More
Fr. Glenn: Can There Be Too Much?
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
It’s funny how easily we toss around extreme phrases: “I gave everything I had?!” “You have to give 110%!!” But do we? Are we truly so generous of ourselves?
On the other hand, if someone were to chastise a parent, a child or a spouse: “You give too much love!”, I think most of us would think such phrase absurd. Love for another is the one thing that should be limitless. Certainly there are better ways than others to manifest love (not enabling self-destructive behavior for one), but, like God who IS love (1 John 4:8), the greatest love is that which has no end. Infinite.
When we’re thinking Read More

By Deacon Cynthia Biddlecomb (ELCA), retired
Last Sunday was Trinity Sunday, the First Sunday after Pentecost. In many of our churches we change the paraments (banners, and frontispieces) from the red of Pentecost Sunday to the white used for a special Feast Day. But this annual feast day differs from others.
Trinity Sunday is about our theology, our understanding of the mystery of God. It addresses the basic doctrine of the Trinity held by the Christian Read More

Fr. Glenn: The Triune One
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
Had a funeral yesterday—a weekly, if not even daily, occurrence in many parishes. Sometimes there are family members who do not get along for this or that reason (sadly, often due to bickering over mere things or inheritance), but it’s always nice when there seems to be an absence of that as we had yesterday, with all the family embracing and rejoicing in the love of one another. As our society changes and relatives become scattered to the various states and even countries, we love when we can rejoice in that common bond of family which unites us.
I was thinking of that as we move from Read More

This Sunday we celebrate Pentecost, which signifies the official recognition of the Holy Spirit being given to Jesus’ followers and thus consecrating the Christian Church with the presence of a mighty wind, with tongues of fire, and witnessing a sudden ability in all present this moment to hear and understand many different languages speaking God’s Holy Word.
We also this week honor the members Read More

Fr. Glenn: The Rising Son
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
So, we’re coming to graduation season again. Hard to believe how quickly the years go by, as you parents know all too well. One day you’re taking the little tykes to pre-K, and the next they’re going off to college … spreading their wings, leaving the nest and beginning to make their way in what is often a scary world. Christian parents worry: “Will they resist the myriad temptations of the world and forget what they have been taught by Christ and the Church, or will they hold fast to faith and conscience?” Priests are not called “Father” for nothing; we, too, worry for our young charges, Read More
Fr. Glenn: Remembering Mothers
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
I saw a rather disturbing post the other day. It was relaying a story of a man who married a single mother and was (by that mother’s own testimony) being an excellent father to her child. And yet some comments criticized the mother in “taking advantage of” her husband and that he was a “fool” for raising another man’s child. I could scarcely fathom the heartlessness of it. Any man or woman acting as a good parent to a child not his/her own should be praised, not criticized. After all, is that not the ideal when people adopt? Have we become so heartless that we cannot have natural human Read More

Unitarian Church
Sunday, May 3 was the milestone in the history of the Unitarian Church of Los Alamos. The congregation voted to invite Rev. Tina DeYoe, their minister pro tem since 2024, into fellowship with the congregation as their settled minister. Though the vote took just a few minutes, it was preceded by months of careful discernment, as the congregation considered who they were and what they wanted to become.
The discernment process revealed a church that was confident Read More
Fr. Glenn: To Protect And To Serve
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
Remember the old TV back in the pre-internet days? We were the “remote control” (“Glenn: get up and turn it to channel 12. And adjust the rabbit ears.”). Ah, the old black and whites. Horizontal and vertical controls. The stations signing on in the morning and off at night with the national anthem. The radio announcement: “It’s 10 o’clock. Do you know where your children are?” The old shows like Gunsmoke, Laugh-In, Get Smart, Bonanza, Hee Haw, Star Trek (what a legacy THAT one has had!). And one of my favorites was Adam-12, which centered around two Los Angeles police officers on Read More
Fr. Glenn: Confirmed In Faith
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
It’s been quite the media spectacle for the last couple of weeks—Pope Leo and President Trump at odds about the Iran conflict, though the Pope was somewhat circumspect about referring to the conflict directly. Then, of course, the debates about what constitutes a “just war” and who determines such, with even bishops emphasizing different aspects and “sides”.
To those unfamiliar with the Church, it might seem there are fractures in its unity. But it only seems so. Debate has been the norm within the Church since the beginning, as it hammers out what is right and wrong, true and Read More

We’ve all been in waiting rooms. Sitting in the waiting room of a doctor or dentist, waiting in line at the grocery store, waiting to board a plane, waiting for the results of an exam or a job interview, waiting for a small child to “do it herself” – all of these are “waiting rooms” we enter on a daily basis. We may feel anxious or annoyed, excited or amused, Read More

Fr. Glenn: Prepping For Inevitability
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
Been having to do a few funerals lately in the little parish which I pastor on top of my main ministry, the latter being largely administrative (sigh). In large parishes, it’s normal to have one to several funerals each week, so I have it “easy” in that regard. We lost one of our archdiocesan priests on Good Friday, and a religious Sister working in Albuquerque a few days ago, too. Many priests and ministers live adjacent to cemeteries as well, and it helps to keep that inescapable reality always near to mind. Also, since Catholics and many other Christians pray for the dead, it helps Read More
