R.I.P. Desmond Mpilo Tutu

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

Archbishop Desmond Tutu has died at the age of 90. 

A holy man, filled with courage, wisdom, insight and passion for the gospel. A prophet and reconciler. A courageous champion for God’s people in South Africa and around the world. May he rest in the peace of Christ whom he loved and served so faithfully. 

Our prayers surround his family and loved ones.

Faithfully in Christ,

 

 

 

The Rt. Rev. Lawrence C. Provenzano
Bishop of Long Island
