Sunday after Sunday I went to the beautiful sanctuary
and I took all of you for granted
all of you and all of my Sunday routine
primping
getting in the car
driving to Georgetown and finding parking
Roger's coffee and bagels
the beautiful music
the light coming through the amazing windows
the hugs, the hymns, the deep sharing, and the sacred words
Bishop LaTrelle Easterling was scheduled to make remarks at the Interfaith Prayer Vigil in Washington, D.C. June 3. The vigil, which you can read about here, was interrupted. Below are her remarks.
I want to thank Bishop Mariann Budde for the invitation to participate in this vigil. May God bless and keep you.
To the families of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and so many others, I offer my deepest condolences.
On May 25, in Minneapolis, MN George Floyd was apprehended by officers and murdered on the street. On March 13, Breonna Taylor was killed in her home by police officers having committed no crime nor being sought under any warrant. On Sunday, February 23, Ahmaud Arbery was murdered on the streets of Brunswick, GA, by vigilantes who were not arrested for 74 days. All these individuals have in common is that they are Black.
A messge from our pastor, the Rev. Dr. Mary Kay Totty:
“For all that has been, thanks. For all that will be, yes.” (Dag Hammarskjöld)
On May 10, at both churches, it was announced that after 11 years as pastor of Dumbarton United Methodist Church, I will be moving half way across the country and will serve as pastor of Seward Umc in Seward, Nebraska.
Thanks be.Thanks be for 11 years of amazing, delightful, & (at times) hard ministry with the folks of Dumbarton UMC.Thanks be for this new ministry opportunity to serve with the folks of Seward UMC.
