Gathering the Christian Community in Waterloo Region for Mutual Understanding and Common Service

[Archbishop of Canterbury @ArchbishopSarah]

I completely agree with @davidrmmonteith. We’re delighted to welcome the Revd Wendy Dalrymple to Canterbury Cathedral. I thank God for her passion for sharing the love of Christ with all. It will be a privilege to serve alongside her.

As we pray for the King today, we give thanks for those who devote their time and energy to supporting others.

We pray for all charities – and that the Coronation would inspire many more people to help others.

I was privileged to be the recipient of the Morehouse College inaugural Gandhi-King-Mandela Peace Prize this evening. I was unable to travel to Atlanta to be at the ceremony, but I recorded a short message that was shown at the event. I have included part of my video message here.

[Archbishop of Canterbury @ArchbishopSarah]

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the turning point of the world. Death becomes new and eternal life.

Because of the resurrection of Jesus, our lives are changed today and have meaning throughout eternity. Christ is alive. He is risen!

Alleluia!

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Brothers and sisters, let us not forget the battered people of Ukraine who are suffering so much! Let us stay close to them with our thoughts, with our help, and with our prayers.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We don't have to wait til we are perfect to bear witness to Jesus; our proclamation begins today, right where we live. And it does not begin by trying to convince others, but by witnessing every day to the beauty of the Love that has looked upon us and lifted us up.

[World Council of Churches (WCC) @Oikoumene]

Amid rapidly rising tensions on the Korean Peninsula over the past few weeks, the National Council of Churches in Korea released a statement entitled “Hope for the Korean Peninsula from the heat of war to coexistence with the warm breeze of peace”: https://t.co/n9eqnL1ZYF

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us do as Jesus did: let us share, let us carry each other’s burdens, let us look at each other with compassion, let us help each other. Let us ask ourselves: am I a person who divides or shares?

[Martin Luther University College @LutherWaterloo]

Luther partnered with @LSPIRG to assist students facing food insecurity on campus with Free Weekly Distro - a volunteer-run program fueled by donations and community partnerships.

On behalf of the #Christian communities in Waterloo Region, we wish all a safe and blessed #Christmas. May those in need be filled and satisfied, those in fear be made secure, and those alone or in mourning find comfort in His loving embrace.

[Eastern Synod-ELCIC @ESynodELCIC]

"And the Word became flesh and lived among us" (John 1:14a) On behalf of Bishop Michael Pryse and the Eastern Synod Staff we wish you a very blessed Christmas. May the joy, peace, hope and love of the incarnation surround you and those dearest to you this season. #myelcic

[Archbishop of Canterbury @ArchbishopSarah]

In the stillness and quietness of Christmas Eve, the world seems to hold its breath.

In the darkness, a Saviour is coming.

In the morning, the world will be changed forever.

[Church of Jesus Christ - Kitchener Stake @LDSKitStakePA]

May your #Christmas be blessed with the presence of the Christ spirit, that your homes and hearts may be filled with His divine love. He loves you now, and will love you always.

[The Lutheran World Federation @lutheranworld]
