Rebuilding: An opportunity for spiritual renewal

Dear Readers,

This week, the deadly bombings in Sri Lankan churches make us cry out in sorrow for those facing a far more pronounced and personal sense of loss, and we invite you to join us in addressing this, too, through prayer.

This latest news comes after the fire last week at Notre Dame. Thankfully there was no loss of life in Paris, and no evidence at this point of any hostile motive behind the fire. Our prayers during and after the fire were in response to the tragic sense of loss, and this is even more pronounced with the loss of life in Sri Lanka. But God who is Love and Life comforts hearts and teaches us to love, even in the face of hatred and destruction. Easter Monday is a day for celebrating the resurrection of Jesus—the ultimate proof that, even where evil seems to be in the ascendency, God’s power is the one, true power.
