Rev. Mark Van Koevering, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Lexington, has called for a day of prayer on Wednesday, Feb. 11. At least one NKY church, Trinity Episcopal Church of Covington, will participate.
“Like you, I have been deeply affected by recent events both at home and abroad,” wrote Van Koevering in a letter to the diocese. “In response, I commend to you the clarion call of the Bishop of Minnesota and the heartfelt challenge of our Presiding Bishop. Unfortunately, these same events have affected people across our country in very different ways: some celebrate the protection of our national interests, while others decry a threat to democracy.”
A diocesan-wide service will take place at Christ Church Cathedral in Lexington. The event will be live streamed. You can find out more information at diolex.org. Locally, Trinity Episcopal will have several services, listed below, throughout the day:
- Morning prayer at 8 a.m.
- Noonday prayers with meditation at 12:10 p.m.
- Holy Eucharist with special music and guest preacher, Jeffrey Queen, at 6 p.m. Click here to view the live stream.
