Kingdom of Priests

by Jordan Uomoto

“You will be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation”
- Exodus 19:6

Communion
Of the Sick
We call it

Taking the PB&J
And apple juice in
Brown paper bag and juice
Box. A sack lunch of the
Holiest order

Ordained for this very purpose
To those who would never set
Foot between our walls

Thank God the walls of our
Priestly order are
Broken

Through the cracks we hear
The whisper
Take me to the world

Jordan Uomoto is a graduating senior at SPU, studying Educational Ministries.
