The Most Rev. Michael Bruce Curry blessed the very first icon of Bishop Barbara Harris while visiting The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri on Sunday, Sept. 19. The icon was commissioned by the Rt. Rev. Deon K. Johnson, Eleventh Bishop of the Diocese of Missouri, to honor his friend and mentor. David Sinden from St. Peter's in Ladue brings us a missionary hymn its author describes as "A Prayer for the Multitudes." Faith Christian Church of India (FCCI) is a mission church of The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri. This incredibly diverse congregation has its roots in the Church of South India, which is a combination of many Christian denominations, including Anglican. Canon Whitney Rice shows us how trauma and tragedy can lead the Church to reformation and resurrection. Our Creation Care Ministry offers a prayer and other resources to use as we intentionally care for all of God's creation. Diocesan Council has approved new mission and vision statements to guide our diocese into the future. Read the new statements and learn how they were created. Canon Precentor Pat Partridge, from Christ Church Cathedral, brings us background on a familiar song with Irish roots that is a prayer for God's presence in our daily lives. Advent Episcopal Church in Crestwood, Calvary Episcopal Church in Columbia, and Christ Episcopal Church in Rolla will all be welcoming new rectors this fall. Canon Whitney explains how we can turn our conversations into moments of evangelism to bring us into closer and deeper relationships. A member of our diocesan Creation Care Ministry is heading to the UK to be an observer at an International Climate Change summit.
