We live in a broken world that is desperate for peacemakers. When I think of Washington Cathedral, I think of this incredible family full of peacemakers. Nancy McJunkin has led, I don’t know how many, small groups. But behind the scenes she has helped many people struggling with deep hurts. I can feel the heart of Jesus when he says with such emotion and blessing – “blessed are the peacemakers…”

Rick and Karen Kammerer are both diligent peacemakers and Rick’s work, after being a veteran, has been helping stop forest fires, and helping at vital times in the church. Karen as a Seattle police detective was always an astonishing peace maker. Howard Blair and Tony Othieno are peace makers. They have raised their spectacular family with wisdom and good hearts that as a Christ follower they each stir deep hope for the future. How our society needs peace makers like them today. To laugh with them and share with them gives one peace. Doug and Carol Meckling who continue to reach out to people and help. Even after their 37th billion anniversary they are still there for family and friends turning tears to joy.

Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God.

Join me as we begin a new series this Sunday on the joyful journey of peace making.
Services are at 10:30 am Sunday on Facebook Live, You Tube Live, www.wacathedral.org, or on the WaCathedral App.

Your friend for the rest of my life,
