| Summary: | "The Covid pandemic caused both horrific loss of life and tremendous psychological uncertainty and stress, with diagnoses of anxiety and mental illness at much higher levels than in 2019. For believers, the pandemic raised obvious questions about the nature of God and increased the need for both material and spiritual pastoral care.
