Faithful Witness in a Troubled Time

Faithful Witness in a Troubled Time

Pastoral Essays on Faith, Justice, Conscience, and Human Dignity

The Old Gray Moose is an independent, reader-supported publication by Rev. Ana Rivera-Georgescu, an ordained Episcopal priest, board-certified clinical chaplain, and long-form reflective writer. It lives at the intersection of faith, justice, and the human story.

This first digital collection gathers eight essays and a closing blessing into one curated volume. Originally published on Substack, they are brought together here for readers who want to hold them in a single place and return to them more easily. The reflections move through justice and what we owe one another, ordinary violence and the poor, immigration and the fragility of refuge, the limits of power, the erasing of public memory, and the long tension between authority and communities of conscience.

These are not offered as final answers. They are invitations to look closely at the times we are living through and to ask what faithfulness may require of us now. The writing is shaped by pastoral care, chaplaincy, Scripture, and lived experience, with a steady concern for the vulnerable and the forgotten.

If these reflections offer you meaning, encouragement, or companionship, you are warmly invited to keep walking with this small community. Subscribe to receive new reflections free in your inbox.
