Very well said. I too believe the bishop is brave, and I appreciate her so much for being so. In a world quickly flooding with yes-men, having someone stand so firmly to their beliefs and human decency is unbearably rare. It made me tear up hearing her requesting mercy for others so earnestly.
The "planting gardens" story was an important one to absorb. It hadn't made it into any of my many social media feeds, so thank you for sharing.
Finally, welcome to your new home. Hope you are settling in well. Community is truly so important, so I hope that - if you haven't already - you find your people soon. I must say, I do miss my writing group (closed down for obvious reasons in 2020 and never started back up again, sadly), so I hope your book club lasts quite a while.
