Week of Prayer for Christian Unity

At least once a year, Christians are reminded of Jesus’ prayer for his disciples that “they may be one so that the world may believe” (see John 17.21).

On this day, we’re asked rather pertinently, “what is the sign of your trust in God?” Following a week of multi-layered problems, experienced in every corridor of the world, not least in the expressed view, that Jamaica…

“Grace” Notes (Advent – Peace)
