Lord God, in whose providence Jackson Kemper was chosen first missionary bishop in this land, that by his arduous labor and travel congregations might be established in scattered settlements of the West: Grant that the Church may always be faithful to its mission, and have the vision, courage, and perseverance to make known to all peoples the Good News of Jesus Christ; who with thee and the Holy Spirit liveth and reigneth, one God, for ever and ever.
Last day at Nashotah House. One of my daily practices has been to visit the grave of Jackson Kemper, first Missionary Bishop of the Episcopal Church. pic.twitter.com/WWS5HWqGiv
