A Prayer About Boredom
By Shayley Martin, GH ‘22. Shayley is majoring in Linguistics.
Sometimes I wonder if you know what it feels like to be bored. If you would deal with it any better than we do. I know you can take the extremes of human experience, hunger and pain and persecution. What I wonder about is the monotony. I wonder if you, Lord, would be able to deal with the routine of over and over, same and same, again and again. Do you know that feeling? That desperation?

On Faith and the Coronavirus
By Serena Puang, DC ‘22. Serena is majoring in Linguistics.
Faith in the face of coronavirus is not blindly insisting on meeting as a church per usual and ignoring the real dangers that this pandemic can pose for people (though many churches are still faithfully meeting and taking precautions). It is not ignoring the problem or wishing it away.
He is Risen!
By Lauren Spohn ’20. Lauren is a junior in Currier studying English.
We have reached the end of our prayerful walk through this Lenten season, and we have come, at long last, to the empty tomb. Rejoice! He has risen; he has risen, indeed.
Thank you for taking this journey with us. We leave the final word to St. Matthew.
We Call This Friday Good
By Aidan Luke Stoddart ’21. Aidan is a sophomore in Eliot concentrating in the Comparative Study of Religion.
Jesus was reviled, oppressed, and afflicted. We led him like a lamb to the slaughter, to crush him with pain. He who had done no violence himself became an innocent victim of our own violence, and in spite of that, we call this Friday good.
