Description

McKim preached this sermon to commemorate the centennial of Robert E. Lee, in a church that was named in his honor (in 2017, the name was changed from R.E. Lee Memorial Episcopal Church to Grace Episcopal Church. His topic is evident from the title; as he says on page 5, Lee “has a place of right in that noble army of the soldiers of Jesus Christ, who have done heroic service for God and for man in their lives.”
