As we draw near to the election of our next bishop, there is quite naturally both excitement and uncertainty in our life together as a diocese. We know that Jesus is on the throne, he is the head of the Church, and he has promised that the gates of hell will not prevail against his Church (Matthew 16:18).

Come and experience a "Healing Encounter with the Psalms" at Church of the Holy Spirit, on Saturday, October 1, at 5 PM. 908 Trailview Blvd. Suite 200, Leesburg, VA 20175. Invite friends to attend with you!

The impact of abortion affects many lives by the often hidden and subtle influences of guilt, shame, anger, or difficulty in trusting others. Join us for a 12-week Bible study for men, women and friends/family members who want healing and freedom from the impact of abortion.

Let’s pray that God will give each of us the grace to take hold of Jesus afresh and the power to follow him in costly obedience.

How do we rebuild our relationships with each other after two years of pandemic separations?

Hunger and thirst are a common metaphor in the Bible. For instance, turn to Psalm 42:12, “As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.” Are you in touch with what your soul really wants? Do you have words for yearning in your soul?

The world doesn’t yet look like it’s under the rule and authority of Jesus. But as Hebrews 2:8-9 says, though we do not yet see everything in subjection to him, we do see Jesus.

In Holy Week, we encounter Jesus’ suffering and death, and we experience anew his great love. We do not go through Holy Week because we are unsure of Jesus’ forgiveness, but because we must never take it for granted. We must never skip glibly from the “Hosannas” of Palm Sunday to Easter’s “Christ is risen.” We must walk the Way of the Cross.

The service was a poignant reminder of the diaconal calling that undergirds all ordained ministry. Several friends attending the ordination commented on part of the Bishop’s exhortation, “…you are to interpret to the church the needs, concerns and hopes of the world.”

In this world we live in, it really feels like a "shadow valley" sometimes. And for some of us, it feels that way every day. So that's why I'm writing to you.

The Healing Center International (HCI) offerings teach people how to have an interactive relationship with God, where they can begin to see all of life from his gracious, loving point of view. Their hope is that they can begin to feel how deeply they are loved, and as a result, love others more deeply in return.
