Presiding Bishop Yehiel Curry has issued his third in a series of monthly messages that continue through the end of this year, titled “All Together in One Place."

Each message will share a pastoral word, rooted in Scripture, that witnesses to God's presence today, our rich theological tradition and the social teaching that connects us.

Alleluia!

On this holy day, we proclaim the Good News of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. In the empty tomb, we find promise. In the risen Christ, we are given a life that carries us forward, sending us to bear witness to the love that overcomes death and the grace that makes all things new.
