ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY JUSTIN WELBY IN GUATEMALA

Archbishop Justin Welby
Our friend Leonardo Ricardo was present when Archbishop Welby presided at the celebration of the Eucharist in Santiago Cathedral in Guatemala City on August 11, 2013.  Len posted a report on the event with pictures and his notes on the archbishop's sermon at his blog, "Eruptions at the Foot of the Volcano," here and here.

Archbishop Welby and Archbishop Armando Guerra Soria of Guatemala are seated in chairs by Leonardo from his series of furniture art creations.  In the picture on the left only a small part of one of the chairs can be seen.

The text of Justin's sermon, Reconciliation is our 'Gift to the World', is posted at the archbishop's website.  The words of the sermon give me hope.  As they say in Guatemala, "Vamos a ver."

UPDATE: Below is a photo, also by Elizabeth Bell, of Leonardo's splendid chairs.  The chairs, with their gorgeous colors, are beautiful - true works of art.
