My Beloved New Progressive Cathedral (NPC) Family,
I write to you today to personally inform you concerning my current situation. Without warning I was stricken with a health condition on Tuesday, December 19th. By God’s divine intervention and with the assistance of my family, I was able to expeditiously receive appropriate medical treatment within a timeframe wherein the best possible results occurred. Today I am profoundly grateful to be able to honestly report to you that no permanent physical or mental impairments resulted from the incident. For this and so much more, I will forever give God praise.
My doctors have advised, and I have agreed, that it is wise for me to now begin my annual sabbatical, which routinely begins in late January or early February and concludes in early March.
I want to assure you that my involvement with the spiritual and administrative affairs of NPC remains strong and intact. While I am away, I am carefully and prayerfully choosing Gospel preachers and evangelists to minister to you each Sunday. Your spiritual growth, development and care remains at the forefront of my mind and at the center of my heart.
Thank each of you in advance for your prayers, understanding and patience during the period I will be away. Special thanks to our entire ministerial staff, deacons, and our trustees for all you have done and continue to do. God willing, I look forward to seeing everyone in person very soon.
Yours in Christ,
James R. Wright
Bishop James R. Wright, Sr., PhD
