Rick Fabian, well known as one of the founding priests of St. Gregory of Nyssa in San Francisco, writes his “treatise in eleven parts” on the significant signs of communal life: the welcoming table, authority (human and biblical), baptism, mystery, marriage, children, the spirit, reconciliation, the worship year, beauty, and hospitality.
