Bombings in Jordan, Turkey, Yemen, and Libya over the weekend; the people of Aleppo are enduring horror beyond imagining; political assassination of an ambassador on live tv today; South Sudan on the verge of genocidal civil war; Congo on the brink of civil war...we cannot seem to help doing our best to deliver each other into the hands of darkness, terror, and suffering.
God, help us! May your kingdom come! Lord Jesus, Prince of Peace, help us! Help us, who call ourselves your disciples, to become peacemakers, healers, and humble servants of all.
O come, O come Immanuel!
Fr. Troy Beecham
