Bishop Gary Lillibridge delivered the sermon during the 113th Diocesan Council Eucharist service on Thursday, February 23. After plenty of jokes and laughter, he focused on the diocesan theme: “Behold, I make all things new,” and he encouraged all to offer themselves for the sake of others and to become God’s partner in making things new.

“Behold! The risen Christ is a seeking Christ. He’s on the loose, and he’s looking for some folks to give him a hand. Be one. As you wake each morning, begin with a simple prayer – ‘Here am I, send me,'” Lillibridge said.
