TEAM - And Pilgrims for Peace

On March 5, I will join a group of 'pilgrims for peace' in traveling to the TEAM (Towards Effective Anglican Mission) Conference in Johannesburg, South Africa. My fellow travelers include a group from the Diocese of California, Long Island, and Alabama (I think). This conference provides an opportunity to focus on important issues such as the Millennium Development Goals and HIV/AIDS and responses to the crises of destitute poverty and pandemic from all places in the Anglican/Episcopal church networks. Hopefully, this will provide a counterweight of the most recent Primates Meeting in Tanzania. Prayers are invited for this event to allow us to focus on matters of life and death that affect so many of our sisters and brothers across the world.
