May 2020 I write in the midst of an unprecedented crisis, the like of which we have not seen since the threat of invasion in World War II. The profound effects of the crisis on every aspect of our lives, our communities, our jobs, our schools and our families create anxiety and uncertainty. It feels like a very dark time for everyone. Yet, if we look around there are signs of light and hope in the darkness - the volunteers who are reaching out to help the vulnerable, the selfless dedication of the NHS and all our essential workers, the resilience and creativity of communities. All these are real consolations to us all right now. The church buildings may be closed to keep everyone safe, but the Church is still open and finding new ways to reach out to everyone.
