This week my heart had I have spent a lot of time thinking about my little Harlem apartment, and Sahadi’s grocery on Atlantic Avenue; I have been grieving for a NYC friend who lost his father to COVID-19, and of course, watching the empty streets of Times Square.

So, this sermon feels special. It feels a little like a love song to a city in pause. Wherever you are this Easter Sunday, I hope that you find promise in the empty spaces.

All blessings and peace to you this Easter.
