Soliciting Prayers…

Graduation is coming…but before I get there, I have to do the following:

3 book reviews (due before April 26)
3 final papers (due April 24, 26, and 27)
2 final projects (due April 24 and 26)
2 final exams (May 3)
1 comprehensive exam (April 14)

I’m probably forgetting something, but we’ll see. I’ll try to keep you updated on my progress. You just keep me in your prayers.

Church honors late reverend

Church honors late reverend – City

This article, courtesy of The Daily Tar Heel, discusses how The Chapel of the Cross honored Dr. Pauli Murray.

An excerpt:

A special service at the Chapel of the Cross on Thursday commemorated the 30th anniversary of the day the Rev. Dr. Pauli Murray became the first black woman to perform a Eucharist as an Episcopal priest.

The service was delivered by a woman who reached another milestone – Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori, the first woman to head an American church…

“As we stand here today, we can say with utter confidence that her life and ministry have brought others to greater awareness, healing, and yes, even friendship, than would have been possible without her strong witness,” Jefferts Schori said.

She also noted her debt to Murray. “I know I stand here today only because she stood here before me. Her proud shoes have carried many others down the road to freedom.”
