From the Rector
If the pandemic has shown us anything, it is the importance of love. Being in lockdown gave all of us the experience of being lonely or, as well as alone.
Some thrived in isolation, finding a peace that had eluded them in the busy world. Others missed the physical touch of family and friends. And some didn’t fair well at all and broke under the stress of Covid. Communities came together in ways once common but lost in recent years. Love was shared over the garden fence, on a walk, with a wave through closed windows. Love reached out making meals, delivering shopping, and collecting prescriptions. Love grew, and like a blanket cocooned us in its warmth.
And now we have a decision to make. Do we continue to grow community, or do we let love die?
