Bishop's Mission Corps returns to Grace
By Jud
The Bishop's Mission Corps, a group of young people living at Gray
Center for six weeks under the Rule of St. Benedict, has begun its
third summer there. The group is led this summer by C. J. Meaders, III.
C. J. has just completed nine months of life under Benedict's Rule
while in Aberdeen, MS. The group members this summer are Andrew
McClarty, Chris Hanna, Natalie Walden, and Lawrence Wainwright. They
will once again be working in Canton three mornings a week at Grace
Church with the Adolescent Offender Program. They will be worshiping
both at Grace and at other Episcopal churches in the area. We welcome
them once again and give thanks for their ministry among us. Please
welcome them heartily and keep them in your prayers. I'm also sure they
would love the chance to dine with you and tell you more about who they
are and what they are doing.
