The Mutomo Nursing School in Mutomo, Kenya, began its new first term on 1st October 2017. This new school, in a remote area of Kenya, provides aspiring students the training needed for each to become a registered nurse. The facility and faculty provide previously unthinkable hope to the 17 young men and women selected for the first class.

Thanks to the generous financial support of several Christ & St. Luke’s Episcopal Church members, a “Bursary Fund” has been established. This fund will provide financial assistance to needy students as they complete 43 months of nursing training. The fund serves as a “financial safety net” for students who, during the term of their training, are unexpectedly challenged to financially fund their tuition. It gives each a means by which to complete their training, if needed. The kindness will ripple loving care to so many in need in Kenya.

Not Only with our Lips but in our Lives: A Note on Loving Our Neighbor 

Have you witnessed an injustice and stood silently or even walked away? It’s likely we can all access some event in our memory. Recent injustices described in news stories and even captured on video for us all to watch in horror have caused me to reflect on what my role is in this current state of unrest in our country. I’ve wondered, at times, if I even have a role to play.

A State of Being, Not Doing: Reading Rowan Williams’ Being Disciples

Our January Rector’s Book Club gathering at Christ & St. Luke’s centered on Rowan Williams’ slim but spiritually dense volume, “Being Disciples.” As the former Archbishop of Canterbury, Williams is known for high-level theological thinking, yet our group found this book remarkably accessible and “joyful,” with one member noting they read it in a single sitting.
