You're right. They're outstanding men. The fact that ALL of them are married detracts not one whit from their spirituality, their effectiveness, or the respect they receive from their parishioners.

Our diocese is also accepting three more.

There's also the real possibility that we will have TWO additional Anglican use PARISHES (the entire parish comes over to the Church) within the next year or two.

Fort Worth is one of the two Episcopalian dioceses which refuses to accept women priests. Jack Iker would make a great bishop in the Catholic Church.

I met their Bp. Iker in England once. I thought he was one of ours! He was gracious and explained that he and several others were on their way to meet with the Holy Father -- I do believe he said it was he, or perhaps another likeminded Anglican bishop. I had the impression something very important was happening.
