“We did not seek this predicament, but God calls us to place the most vulnerable & marginalized at the center of our common life, and we must follow that command regardless of the dictates of any political party or earthly power. We are now being faced with a series of choices between the demands of the federal government and the teachings of Jesus, and that is no choice at all.”

While I never met him in person, he was Presiding Bishop when I became an Episcopalian and some of his books were helpful on my journey. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

“The Rt. Rev. Frank Tracy. Griswold III, the 25th presiding bishop of The Episcopal Church, died on March 5 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania”
