From Channel 3000-Bishop Michael Curry, head of the Episcopal Church, will be in two places at once this Sunday.
Thousands of Episcopalians and other Christians will see him deliver his Easter sermon from the pulpit of Washington National Cathedral at 11 a.m. He pretaped the sermon on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Curry himself will be sitting in his living room in Raleigh, North Carolina.
The effervescent preacher, who stole the ceremony at Prince Harry and Megan Markle’s wedding two years ago, may not even watch his own Easter sermon.
“I have never watched myself preach,” Curry said light-heartedly. “Maybe it’s humility, but I avoid that.”
Instead, the presiding bishop will pull out his iPad and watch another church’s service this Sunday.
It will be the first time in living memory he won’t be in church on Easter Sunday, Curry said. He’ll miss it, but said he sees a larger purpose at work.
“To love your neighbor is to love God. And one of the most loving things we can do this Sunday is not gather in a public assembly so that nobody else gets sick. It is an act of worship.”
