โWe are living through a painful time. Horrified by the Atlanta shootings, I want to echo Presiding Bishop Michael Curry, who says: โWe must stand up, speak up and show up... for our Asian American and Pacific Islander brothers, sisters and siblings.โ Here at St James in-the-City, our Korean identity โ exemplified by amazing leaders Fr. John Kim and Rev. Canon Aidan Koh โ is a key part of the heart and soul of this beloved community.โ โ Kate+ This is a stained glass window from St. James portraying The Rt. Rev Paul Lee, the first Korean Bishop, who blesses a factory worker, a farmer, and a child. #stopasianhate #allarewelcome 
Hope remains... โค๏ธ #2021
