Washington, D.C., Cathedral Dean Samuel T. Lloyd III has released the following statement in response to the earthquake in Japan and resulting tsunamis.
Our hearts and our prayers reach out to all those who have lost their lives or have been affected by the terrible earthquake in Japan and the tsunamis that accompanied it, as well as for the people at risk in Hawaii and the American West Coast. This globally unfolding disaster reminds us again that we are all connected, no matter our distance, with bonds that must strengthen when buildings and infrastructure pass away.
As we watch the power and mystery of the ocean do its worst, we are comforted by the conviction that God is at work bringing strength, hope, and courage to those who have been afflicted.
The Washington National Cathedral community welcomes all those who seek to gather for spiritual strength at this time of questioning and fear.
