Newsletter for August 1

The rector shares an excerpt from poet Adrienne Rich’s “Natural Resources”:
“My heart is moved by all I cannot save:
so much has been destroyed
I have to cast my lot with those
who age after age, perversely,
with no extraordinary power,
reconstitute the world.”
 
...and asks the question: “Who are those people in your life?”
