Habits of Grace
An Invitation for You
from Presiding Bishop Curry
"As we learn to adjust our lives ...,
I invite you to join me each week
to take a moment
to cultivate a habit of grace."
These meditations are short, 3 to 5 minutes in length.
A new one will be posted each Monday through May, but all previous ones can be seen here.
Prayer for Justice and Mercy
for Indigenous Peoples
October
“O God of infinite mercy,
we live in a land where the native peoples were moved, often by force, from the bountiful lands they inhabited
to places of desolation.
Help us to support them now
as they seek to retain their rich native cultures.
Open our eyes to the poverty and despair
that so often accompany them through life,
and give us the courage and will
to change the systems that perpetuate injustice,
for the sake of your Son our Lord.”
Amen
New Addition in the Memorial Garden
Where this cross has been for more than 150 years is unknown, but its creation has been traced to France. It bears the date of 1851 and the French words, Corneau Freres of Charleville.
The Corneau foundary, created in 1846, by the Corneau brothers, Alfred and Emile, specialized in ornamental cast iron and produced numerous artistic cemetery crosses with images of St. Peter and St. Paul at the base of the cross. The Corneau Freres foundries became one of the leading manufacturers of art cast iron in the second half of the 19th century.
A gift of a large, ornate, antique cross has been given by Brenda Barnes in memory of her daughter Felicia Lynn Wine Mollohan. It rests above the columbarium in the Christ Church Memorial Garden.
