Dear Beloved in Christ,
 
Greetings in the precious name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
 
With many in our New England community, I am grieving the tragic death of seven motorcyclists in a roadway accident near Randolph, NH, on Friday, June 21, as reported in USA Today.
 
My understanding is that all seven victims, as well as three persons who were injured in the crash, were Marines or their spouses participating in a fundraiser for veterans. They were from Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Hampshire. 
 
Please join with me in praying for the families and friends who mourn their loss, for the young driver whose truck collided with them, and for those who are still recovering from their injuries. 
 
During these summer days when we spend more time traveling, may we all be especially careful on the roadways.
 
In Christ’s love,

Bishop Sudarshana Devadhar
