August 2016
The Rev. Maurice C Frontz STS St Stephen Lutheran Church
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ.
Back in the days of the Cold War, American intelligence
agents would always pay close attention to the photographs taken of the Soviet
leaders in the grandstand at the parades commemorating the October revolution.

Sermon August 7, 2016 (Proper 14C)
Pentecost
12/Proper 14 7 August 2016
St Stephen
Lutheran Church, Pittsburgh PA
The Rev.
Maurice C. Frontz III, STS
I was in
the local Wal-Mart a few months ago,
for some
reason passing the jewelry desk.
I saw the
collection of cross pendants there and stopped to look at it.
I’m not
really interested in jewelry, but I am interested in crosses.
In some of
the little boxes the crosses came in were short verses.
I leaned
down to read one of the prayers, which said,
‘God grant
me the courage to believe in my dreams.’

Sermon Easter Sunday
Easter Sunday, March 27, 2016
St Stephen Lutheran Church
The Rev. Maurice C. Frontz III, STS
Alleluia! Christ is risen!
The women go to the tomb
to remember and bury the past
and mourn the present,
but when they get there,
they are told that there is a future.
Easter is a day about the future.
We get here and make a big hub-bub
and see our old friends
and revel in the beauty of nature
and then we go back to our lives
full of whatever joys and sorrows,
trials and struggles,
that were there before.
But hopefully, our perspective will have changed on them,
or our attitudes toward them will be re-adjusted,
perhaps gently, perhaps violently.
