Pastoral word from Presiding Bishop Michael Curry to the people of Cuba
To Bishop Griselda Delgado Del Carpio, to my brothers and sisters in the Episcopal Diocese of Cuba, and to all of God’s children in your country, I greet you with the ancient words of the Apostles, “Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”
I stand in solidarity with you during this time of sickness, food insecurity, economic suffering, and civil unrest. I am praying for you, and I stand for the human rights of all peaceful protesters.
When I saw you early in March of 2020, I said then, and I mean now: “We love Cuba and all her people.” In 1 Corinthians, St. Paul reminds us that in the Body of Christ, “When one member suffers, all suffer together with it,” and we share in your pain with the loss of lives due to the pandemic.
Even in the face of despair, Jesus walks with us and gives us strength as we strive to serve others, preserve dialogue, and protect hope. We also encourage humanitarian agencies and the international community to be supportive of Cuba at this moment of suffering and need in order to help you move toward a society of justice, peace, and health.
To all people in The Episcopal Church, I beseech you to pray for our Cuban brothers and sisters and to hold them in your hearts and minds in the days to come.
Keep the faith,
The Most Rev. Michael Bruce Curry
Presiding Bishop and Primate
The Episcopal Church
Mensaje pastoral del obispo primado Michael Curry al pueblo de Cuba
A la obispa Griselda Delgado Del Carpio, a mis hermanos y hermanas en la Diócesis Episcopal de Cuba, y a todos los hijos de Dios en ese país, les saludo con las antiguas palabras de los apóstoles: «Gracia y paz de Dios nuestro Padre y del Señor Jesucristo».
Estoy en solidaridad con ustedes durante este tiempo de enfermedad, inseguridad alimentaria, sufrimiento económico y agitación civil. Estoy orando por ustedes y apoyando los derechos humanos de todos los manifestantes pacíficos.
Cuando los vi a principios de marzo de 2020, les dije entonces, y lo reafirmo ahora: «Amamos a Cuba y a toda su gente». En 1 Corintios, san Pablo nos recuerda que en el Cuerpo de Cristo «cuando un miembro sufre, todos sufren junto con él» y nosotros compartimos su pesar por la pérdida de vidas debido a la pandemia.
Aun frente a la desesperación, Jesús camina con nosotros y nos da la fuerza mientras nos empeñamos en servir a otros, preservar el diálogo y proteger la esperanza. Instamos también a las agencias humanitarias y a la comunidad internacional que apoye a Cuba en este momento de sufrimiento y de necesidad, a fin de ayudar a que avance hacia una sociedad de justicia, paz y salud.
A todos los miembros de la Iglesia Episcopal, les pido que oren por nuestros hermanos y hermanas cubanos y que los lleven en sus corazones y mentes en los días venideros.
Guarden la fe,
Rvdmo. Michael Bruce Curry
Obispo Presidente y Primado
de la Iglesia Episcopal

CHURCH BY THE POND
By Andrew May
July 10th, 2021
The City of Hartford's motto is, " Post Nubila Phoebus" ... " After the Clouds, the Sun" .
Meteorologically, after a week of intense rainfall, we did experience the sun in a pleasant afternoon. Globally, we are starting to slowly see the rays of sunlight in a post-COVID world. Concretely, the participants of Church By the Pond & Church Street Eats, experience the sunlight , no mater the weather, every Saturday. The sunlight of God's love, the sunlight of human camaraderie, and the warmth that comes from unconditional human regard. Together _22__ participants basked in this love in a service overseen by Dean Lina Howell from Christ Church Cathedral in Hartford and_31_ enjoyed a bagged lunch provided by the generous congregants of Trinity Episcopal Tariffville.
Here comes the Sun do do do
Here comes the Sun
And I say it's alright G. Harrison

Christ Church Cathedral serves the entire Episcopal Church in Connecticut community for the good of the whole, and is the seat of the bishops. It is "our cathedral." Our Cathedral hosts four congregations in one worshiping community. It's not a parish, as its role is unique in the diocese (see 2015 task force report & resolution). In this its centennial year, Cathedral leaders and Centennial Committee members wish to remind all Episcopalians in CT that by virtue of their membership in a parish, they are members of our Cathedral. All are welcome at any time, and in particular, invited to these events .
