Sunrise on Tybee

Awoke this morning in time to get to the beach for the sunrise. 


I'm mindful of the words to a favorite hymn, "When morning gilds the sky...."

The blessing of a new day, filled with opportunities to collaborate with God. 

"God calls us to do some things we cannot do alone."

Last night was a Lenten soup supper at All Saints Episcopal church here on Tybee. It began with contemplative prayer, followed by dinner, a video, and conversation about collaboration with God in our lives and our work. 


A remarkable collaboration begins today in Jasper, Georgia. The Matthew Project. A collaboration between Episcopal Charities Foundation and Good Samaritan Health & Wellness Center.  And with Church of the Epiphany, Atlanta. And with God. 

What was envisioned two years ago, becomes a reality. Groups across the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta will make mission trips to help build the new health center so that residents of Pickens County (the poorest county in Georgia) will have medical care. 


An extraordinary collaboration indeed!
