Dear friend,

Making a difference. This is a pretty common desire among people that I know. They want their lives to mean something, especially to mean something beyond themselves. 

When I think of the individuals who support TLC and make our work possible, I know that their lives are valuable simply because of who they are. But I’m so grateful to know that they also see what I see when I look at TLC: a nonprofit that (by God’s grace!) is making a difference in people’s lives, in the Episcopal Church, and in the wider Anglican Communion.
 
Support our independent reporting with a year-end gift to The Living Church >

Whether it’s the fact that we are the only independent news site covering the Episcopal Church, that we publish Covenant, the most influential online journal in the Anglican Communion, or that we produce essential resources for individuals (our free Daily Devotional email) and parishes (our sermon preparation aid and the Episcopal Musician’s Handbook), there are a ton of reasons to believe that TLC is making a difference. 

Because of the support from friends like you, here are a few more things we’ve been able to do this year:

• Launch a brand new website
• Publish more than 30 independently reported news stories of the 2024 General Convention
• Produce 22 episodes of The Living Church Podcast on topics as varied as neurodiversity, John Behr on human nature, the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital, Communion Across Difference, clergy couples, and the cardinal virtues in an election season 
• Publish Pastoral Ministrations for the Priest — with a sold-out first run! 

With your help, we cover the issues that matter — give now >

Please answer the call to support independent journalism from the same people who are also a ministry of unity that seeks to build up the Church. We’re a non-profit enterprise, and we need you. Your gift today will help the Living Church do what only we can do together.

Warmly,
Matthew
