Candlelight VigilAfter Another Assault Against Americans

Dear Ones, increasingly it seems, America is not a safe place for Americans. Water sources prove unreliable, peaceful marchers are mowed down by cars and now, last Sunday, over 500 citizens of the United States were injured and close to sixty died. They were not killed by an invading force or by foreign inspired terrorists.

With the announcement by President Donald Trump of his decision to withdraw the commitment made by the United States to the Paris Climate Accord, I am reminded of the words of the old spiritual which speaks of God and God’s creation in these words, “He’s got the whole world in his hands.” The whole world belongs to God, as Psalm 24 teaches us.
