The Rev. Canon Melissa McCarthy and I join in thanks to supporters of the One Body & One Spirit Appeal in the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles: “Many cultures have inherited the tradition of the phoenix rising from the ashes. On the day of Pentecost, God’s Spirit came down to begin to form fractious people into one – a new kind of community to glorify God and care for God’s people. Hope rising out of loss, hope coming down from heaven, hope alive because of all of you. Thank you – and blessings in Christ to those you love on the Day of Pentecost and beyond.” Learn more at www.diocesela.org.
