It was a big weekend for me. I had a 10-year anniversary yesterday and of course there was the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on Saturday!It was 10 years ago that I joined the Episcopal Church at St. George’s Episcopal Church in Nashville. In 2008, it was Mother’s Day, Pentecost Sunday and the day that the Bishop laid hands on my head to receive me into the Episcopal Church.I’d always been a church goer but had never had the “fire” and conviction until I met the people of St. George’s. It brought the love of Jesus into clear focus that I’d never experienced before.Six weeks ago I attended an Episcopal Revival in Honduras as part of the #JesusMovement. Presiding Bishop Michael Curry preached on both Saturday and Sunday and knocked it out of the park. I had the pleasure of dinner conversation with him and he is a genuine, warm person whose love of Jesus is sincere and overflows in all dimensions.In preaching at the Royal Wedding on Saturday, Presiding Bishop Curry talked about the love of Jesus and how our love for Him and our neighbors can change the world.Here’s the transcript of his 13 minute sermon, “The Power of Love”: Presiding Bishop Michael Curry Sermon at Royal Wedding. Every word was inspiring but the stanza of an old hymn reminded us that we all have a role in spreading the good news:“There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole," and one of the stanzas actually explains why. They said:“If you cannot preach like Peter,And you cannot pray like Paul,You just tell the love of Jesus,How he died to save us all.”Oh, that’s the balm in Gilead!This way of love, it is the way of life. I’m going to keep preaching, praying and writing until the world is changed.Will you join me?Blessings,Agatha Nolen

St. George's Gate at the visitor's entrance to Windsor Castle, England One year ago on May 23rd I was at Windsor Castle on a pilgrimage with my church tracing our Anglican roots. The photo is from the St. George’s Gate at the visitor’s entrance into the Castle.Last month on April 7th I attended an Episcopal Revival in Honduras, ¡Avivamiento! where I met and heard Presiding Bishop Michael Curry preach for the first time. Here’s a link to the sermon he delivered at the Revival: https://www.episcopalchurch.org/library/video/most-rev-michael-curry-diocese-honduras-revival.These two events intersect this Saturday morning when Presiding Bishop Michael Curry of the Episcopal Church (USA) will be delivering the sermon this Saturday at the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at Windsor Castle. It will be at 6AM CDT. I’ll be watching and taping the event.Presiding Bishop Curry issued this statement: "The love that has brought and will bind Prince Harry and Ms. Meghan Markle together has its source and origin in God, and is the key to life and happiness," Curry, the church's presiding bishop, said in a statement. "And so we celebrate and pray for them today."I can’t wait to hear how the #JesusMovement changes lives and blesses those with the key to life and happiness.Blessings, my friendAgatha

I’m still enjoying the afterthoughts from the Episcopal Revival I attended in Honduras a few weeks ago. It has fed my inner spirit with healing and revived my desire to live out the warm embrace of the Latino culture. I lived in San Antonio for 10 years before moving to Nashville and still miss my faith-filled friends there.I joined the Episcopal Church in 2008 and it has been a great decade for me to learn more about myself and my faith.However, meeting Presiding Bishop Curry and his vision for the church has me even more energized. Recently Presiding Bishop Curry shared: “The Jesus Movement is not a gimmick but an invitation. We are closing down business and reforming our Church into the image of Jesus - it’s gonna be pretty and sweet and will be the transformation of the church to become the body of Christ.”His enthusiasm for remaking the church in Jesus’ image is infectious!My favorite photo from my time in Honduras was of the Presiding Bishop after the Peace during Sunday Mass. He had graciously hugged almost everyone in the church and posed for photos. But apparently one girl had gotten left out of his hug.The photo says it all. My Presiding Bishop acting like Jesus in giving his children a warm embrace and showing how to love one another.Blessings, my friend,Agatha

I just returned from my first Episcopal Revival. Started in 2017 in Pittsburgh, these revivals by the Episcopal Church are designed to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ in the language of the people and provide open space where we can share our stories about God.I attended a Billy Graham Crusade in Oklahoma City in 1983 and wondered if this new Episcopal Revival was going to be similar. Many aspects were with great Spirit-filled music and inspired preaching. However, the service ended differently in Honduras.In 1983 in Oklahoma City, the last song began to play and Mr. Graham announced an altar call—that anyone who was ready to commit their life to Christ could come forward where they would be taken off-stage and people would pray for their new-found commitment. I had joined a Southern Baptist Church a few years earlier and wasn’t moved to leave my seat on that particular night, but it was very emotional as many people went forward.As the local band started to play the last song in Honduras last week, I wondered if it was going to be the same “altar call”. Presiding Bishop Curry recognized Bishop Allen from Honduras and Bishop Allen instead requested that all his clergy come forward and stand in front of him on the stage. As the clergy made their way to the front, the band played softly in the background.When 50 or so clergy had come forward, Bishop Allen offered a different altar call in both Spanish and English: “If anyone today desires to be healed, I invite you to come forward where we will pray for you.”It was emotional for the 3000 attendees, and people began lining up before each clergy, six and eight deep to receive the laying on of hands and healing prayer.I was reminded of the story in the Gospel of John 5:6 where a disabled man had been an invalid for 38 years and was lying by a pool. When Jesus learned of the man’s infirmity he didn’t ask him if he was ready to commit his life to Christ. Instead he asked him, “Do you want to get well?” (¿Quieres ser sano?)Tears flowed as we admitted that we needed to be healed and moved forward to receive healing prayer.Blessings, my friend,Agatha
