Right on, Bishop Katharine!

Over on Santos Woodcarving Popsicles there is a YouTube video of Presiding Bishop Katharine answering the question, "Why should I be an Episcopalian." Thanks for the heads up SWP! It's a fine short inviting statement. In the days ahead we should remember it and what we offer as a church in the wider realm of Christian community.

  1. Fr. Mark, Late one night, after a lengthy school board meeting, I came to be in an argument with a board member. He was a strong supporter and a friend (much as school board members and superintendents can be friends) and so at the conclusion, I sort of apologized for holding a conflicting opinion. His comment I will never forget and I pass it on here as it seems appropriate for this particular video and in the wider context. He said to me, "You know, if you and I always thought alike one of us would not be necessary."
    N'est pas?
