The Covid-19 pandemic is an inflection point for the church everywhere―and certainly for the Episcopal Church. The sudden flowering of creativity, connection, and collaboration is an expression of the Holy Spirit’s relentless presence within the church; yet ongoing distancing creates difficulties to be overcome on the other side of the present crisis.
How will we change habits of isolation and regather the church? How will we manage the impact on church finances? How is God calling us to embrace the energy and creativity of this moment―and the longing people have felt for a return to community? What challenges will we face regathering the people of God, particularly in already weakened communities?
