As we walk through Holy Week, I seek to offer a word to those of you who will preach the Gospel either through formal sermons or by living your lives as Christians in this time.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
From the Archives – Bishop Whittingham’s Visitation to Western Maryland, 1840
With interstate highways and 70-mile-per-hour travel, it still takes three hours to travel by car from Baltimore to Western Maryland, but in 1840, Maryland’s newly-consecrated bishop faced longer and more primitive travel and communicated using written, hand-delivered letters during his first foray into the westernmost reaches of his new diocese. In the age before Facebook, Instagram and other social media, Bishop Whittingham shared and documented his travels using hand-delivered letters and handwritten entries in his journals.
