Fr. Johann+

There was a time when I thought a principle reason for
our existence was "to be a light in a dark place."
Because I had found the treasury of Anglican writings
and thought to be a precious thing, I thought that
this might be our particular mission in the world.

While there may be a little truth in that thought, in
recent years it has become evident to me that prayer,
intercessory prayer, may be our peculiar or particular
gift.
