Thanks Regina. I will act by following the links you provided today.
Let us pray that our bishop-elect Regina Nicolosi and all of us have the courage of these saints with us. That we are willing to lay down our lives for the injustices we encounter and whose outcomes we embrace as we resists and protest for change. May we we recognize how deep and wide violence is within our church and worldwide throughout many systemic pathological constructions..Let us also remember that people often have choices and that we hold them accountabe as we hold ourselves accountable for how we will address the terrors of our times.
Let us pray that in RCWP we stand in solidarity together at all times so that we may become an empowered priesthood of women and men who bring transformative change in joy. Let us stay with our God and our Cloud of Witnesses from all time-- time past, present and in the future, and in the name of Jesus Wisdom Sophia embrace our holy destinies.
The music we start with first today, since we are honoring these saints is Johann
Sebastian Bach's "Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben
Most of us will recognize this as Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring.
As today is the Feast of the Annunciation you can expect a few more entries from the Cloud of Witnesses and more music as the day and evening goes by.
Much love,
RCWP Canada and Europe-West
