Who we are
We are members of the Washington National Cathedral, who participated in Sacred Ground Circles. Sacred Ground circle are groups of congregants developed under the direction of former Presiding Bishop Curry’s vision for the Beloved Community.
In our circles, we studied and watched films telling our shared history as Americans. We contemplated, discussed, marveled, and cried over the vestiges of slavery, Native American treatment, discrimination against Asians and Latin Americans. We mourned the pass to get to the future.
Our quilt memorializes the experiences of all those through the Episcopal church family and signifies our pledge to continue to learn to '“Love One Another,” as commanded by our Lord, Jesus.
Our Teams are:
Nancy Chapman, Chair
Jean Ann Wright, Head Quilter
Dan Hewitt
Paula B. Mays
Jean Ann Wright, Head Quilter
