From The Presbyterian Outlook - Israel/Palestine and U.S. churches, taking chaplaincy seriously, GA225

Dear Outlook readers, 

Today, I pray that you are able to see the Spirit at work all around you — in community, in creation, in the work of the church. Know that God goes with you into all of the unknowns of this time and Christ's grace covers you.

In Christ,

Rose Schrott Taylor
