The Christ Church Mosaic
Our week in Toronto has come to and end, and the pilgrims from Christ Episcopal in Pomfret, Ct have re-crossed the border and returned home. We had a really fun and uniqiue week here. From the service projects at St Bart’s, to a Eucharist service at St James Anglican Cahtedral, to a Toronto Blue Jays game, to Toronto Island, to Little India, Greektown, and Chinatown, we have explored, worked, laughed, prayed and played in this culturally diverse city. The group grew closer together each day as they learned more and more about each other, and they lived out their time of pilgrimage with energy, humor, curiosity, and grace.The students were challenged and encouraged to live into their unique giftings, and to continue to love and serve God by loving, living, and serving in community.
This group will soon begin its Young Adults in Church program, and our prayer is that they will join fully into the life of their parish by contributing their gifts as they continue on their journeys. They are all pieces of the mosaic which is their church, and we hope they will strive to be truly who they were created to be while being part of something larger than themselves.
Thus ends the Toronto blog.
