THANK YOU!
As we begin the second year of our revival, I want to commend the Steering Committee and the teams in Pittsfield and Worcester for their dedication to the tasks of year one. Many of you have heard that planning began last October. The hours, the meetings, the local break-outs to plan an incredible liturgy in Pittsfield and a lively faith-sharing in Worcester—this was a mammoth labor of love for Western Massachusetts.
The "way of love" may be a new framework for our life in Christ, but we have been on this way together from the start. I felt great pride as your bishop as the Evangelism Team from Church Center reflected on our process and our day of praise. I am always proud of this clergy and of our faithful laity. Revival Sunday was, for all of us, a moment of grace in which we could feel and see God's Spirit moving us forward toward the dream God has for this world. Thank you all for giving yourselves to this effort, and running this race with such joy.
