A Lenten Invitation from Bishop Mary Gray-Reeves: Reflecting on our Relationship with Power & Authority

Dear Diocese of Florida,

At our last diocesan convention in September 2025, Bishop Mary Gray-Reeves committed to creating a bible study for members of our diocese to explore their relationship with power and authority.

As we continue to discern and prepare to elect our next bishop, we are invited to prayerfully examine these topics together within our diocesan community. Linked here is her Bible Study Guide, which utilizes the Gospel readings for Lent, Year A, as the foundation for reflection and Lectio Divina.

Before you begin the exercises, we encourage you to watch the video linked below to hear more from Bishop Mary on how this journey of exploration can help us as we prepare for our upcoming conversations with a slate of bishop candidates.
