Prayers for Orlando: Statement from Spokane bishopPosted Jun 14, 2016 |
Dear friends,
Please hold in your prayers those who died, were injured, or who lost loved ones in the horrific shooting deaths at an Orlando, Florida club where at least 49 people were killed and many others injured, some gravely.
As we pray for all, may we do so mindful that the focus in our lessons and worship this Sunday morning was a call to proclaim that all life is sacred; a gift from God, and holy.
May we abhor and address vigorously the senseless violence that continues to wreak death and destruction on a daily basis.
+Jim
The Rt. Rev. James E. Waggoner, Jr.
Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Spokane
