A Message from the Province V Bishops (and others) Regarding Inauguration Protests
Earlier this week, the FBI warned that armed protests are being planned for Washington D.C. and all 50 state capitals sometime between Saturday, January 16, and the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden on January 20. As your bishops, we write today imploring you to stay away from these protests and any counter-protests that might occur.
Messages from Bishop Hollingsworth Regarding the Coronavirus Crisis and Suspension of In-Person Worship
All congregations will suspend in-person worship by Sunday, December 13, if they have not done so already, and return to worshiping by online services only on that day.
A Message from the Bishop
Wednesday evening, the Rev. Noah Sutterisch and the Rev. Christopher Decatur were ordained to the sacred Priesthood at Trinity Cathedral. Against the backdrop of violent and unthinkable insurrection in our nation’s capital, it was a moving and healing event. This was not because it provided for us a distraction from the seditious breach of both the Capitol Building and the Constitution, but because it focused each of us on the brokenness and divisions of our nation and on our vocation as Christians: to bring God’s gifts of justice, mercy, truth, and peace to a country and world desperately in need of them, and like the Magi, to do so with honesty, fidelity, humility, and courage.
Presiding Bishop Curry’s Word to the Church: Who shall we be?
Lincoln knew in that moment, in the moment of a national crisis, a moment of great danger, that such a moment was a moment of decision, when a nation, when a people must decide who shall we be? What kind of nation, what kind of people shall we be? A hundred years later, Martin Luther King faced the same reality. Who shall we be? The civil rights movement was waning. The great victories that had been won had been won. And yet now questions of poverty and economic despair and disparities raised an awesome specter on the nation. We were at war.
Grace Episcopal food pantry shares love at Christmas
Between 800 and 900 families received food for the Christmas holiday from Grace Episcopal Church food pantry Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning.
Ministers use Christmas story for encouragement during COVID-19
The Rev. Matt Wahlgren of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Fremont used the story of Christ’s birth to point hurting people to the hope that can be found in God.
A Christmas Message from the Bishop
In this season of new light, I give thanks for each of you and for all that you do to illuminate the love of God, incarnated in the birth of Jesus. In him, you, too, are the light of the world, and the darkness can and will never overcome you.
2020 Christmas Message from Presiding Bishop Michael Curry
While we may not feel joyful this year – as the pandemic of disease continues to bring sickness and death, when fear and mistrust – a darkness – threatens to overcome the light – we, as followers of Jesus Christ must bear joy to this aching world. We must shine light into the darkness. Joy to the world!
