Message from Bishop Mike
                                       Jesus called the crowd with his disciples and
                                       said to them, “If any want to become my
                                       followers, let them deny themselves and
                                       take up their cross and follow me.” -Mark
                                       8:34

                                       At various points in worship, and when I
                                       pray, I trace the sign of the cross on myself
                                       by touching my forehead, torso, shoulders
                                       and laying my palm over my heart. This
                                       simple ritual reminds me of who I am as a
