Dear friends, This week's reflection will be provided by Bishop Bickerton, as part of the Dismantling Racism Lenten devotionals that have been offered by many of the Bishops of the United Methodist Church. This Lenten devotional series offers the opportunity to confess and fast from the sins of racism, discrimination, oppression and exclusion.  Bishop Bickerton's pre-recorded devotional will be available here on Thursday, April 1.
