Love is at the foundation of the Good Friday Offering
of our Church which provides an opportunity for every parish throughout
our Church to be connected with the ministry of love and compassion
carried out by our Anglican sisters and brothers throughout the Province
of Jerusalem and the Middle East," Presiding Bishop and Primate Michael
Curry wrote to the bishops and clergy of The Episcopal Church. "Love is
at the heart of the meaning of the cross. Love is at the heart of the
life Christ calls us to live. Love is at the heart of the movement
Jesus began and which we live in our own time."
In his Good Friday letter, Presiding Bishop
Curry asks each Bishop and congregation to consider providing
assistance for the Province of Jerusalem and the Middle East.
"I believe our partnership with those who
keep the faith of Jesus alive in the region, where our Lord walked and
began his movement, is a significant aspect of our work as part of the
church catholic," he wrote.
