Oh, lovely. This POS is my bishop now. He is coming to my church in January. I think I will be washing my hair that day.
I'm in the Diocese of Chicago. We're probably not due for an Episcopal visit for at least a year. I'm wondering when it happens what I'll do. Staying home is not an option; I sing in the choir, and I'll probably be selected as either a lector or the intercessor.
I've read often that the virtue of the Sacraments are inherent in them and not in the cleric who offers them. If that is so, it seems to me that there is no impediment to taking the Eucharist from him.
