Please pray!

Bishop Andudu and the Anglican church in the Sudan Nuba Mountain region is asking the diocese of Christ Our Hope to join in prayer and fasting in relation to a recent outbreak of violence in the Nuba Mountains. The violence has caused major disruption and significant damage to various areas in both the Diocese of Kadugli and Heiban in the Nuba region. Local tribal conflict which escalated has also been exacerbated by recent drone strikes on humanitarian infrastructure. Bishop Andudu has been elected by regional religious and community leaders to lead a peace committee, which is guiding both prayer and relief efforts for all of those affected. Please join us in lifting up the situation and Bishop Andudu‘s efforts. He has specifically called to join other Sudanese and Anglicans around the world to pray and fast on Wednesday, May 27th from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Why do we celebrate Christ's Ascension? As Fr. Ben Sharpe, our Rector Emeritus, writes: "If we surrender or ignore the biblical teaching that Jesus ascended into heaven in the body in which he suffered, died, and was raised to life, again—we surrender the truth that is our very source of boldness, hope and joy. The ascension of Jesus Christ is very Good News indeed..."
