To begin this issue, Rev. Di Panting and the Diocesan Search Committee have provided a brief description of what the role of a bishop is. These are important things to keep in mind as we seek a new leader for this Diocese. Please reflect on these things and keep the Search Committee in your prayers.
Next, Rev. Theo Robinson writes on the hardships of grief, and what our fully divine and fully human saviour, Jesus Christ, can teach us about it. Grief is a difficult but inevitable part of being a person, but as long as we have our faith, we never have to bear it alone.
Following this, Rev. Edmund Laldin explores the relationship between Nehemiah weeping over the state of Jerusalem and Jesus weeping at the death of Lazarus. These events, he says, can inform us about the current state of our Diocese, and how we can proceed towards a hopeful future.
Finally, Zoe Matties examines lament in a time of crisis regarding our planet’s climate. She reminds us that we are God’s creatures and inherently a part of God’s creation. As God’s creation, our faith can be a path to action, and our grief can kindle our hope.
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted” (Matthew 5:4).
Peace be with you; I hope you enjoy.
