Lent 4


Today's Collect for the Day ...

Gracious God, whose blessed Son Jesus Christ came down from heaven to be the true bread which gives life to the world: Evermore give us this bread, that he may live in us, and we in him; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.


... put me in mind of this piece on "bread" I wrote back in seminary that I think is particuarly pertinent as we pray for our bishops taking council at Camp Allen.

Read it here ... and give thanks for the bread of life that unites us in the Body of Christ even as we struggle with what divides us as the Church in the World.
