You know, I was at a wedding this weekend and was chatting with some relatives (we're pretty much all practicing Catholics...and there're loads of us, ten kids are the norm) and the situation of the woman Bishop came up.
One of my relatives by marriage (himself a convert from non-specific Protestant) said he was happy about the Bishop because it would lead to mass conversions to Catholicism by orthodox Anglicans.
Now we all know there are several more orthodox places to end up that the ECUSA (ok many), but whether these good folks end up Catholic is splitting hairs at this point.
I for one did say a prayer that this would come to pass when the Shrine I attended yesterday (a very orthodox one at that) skipped the third verse of Alleiua, Sing to Jesus....WHEN THERE ARE ONLY THREE TO BEGIN WITH!!!!!
Anyway, please tell your friends that if they're planning on swimming over, to PLEASE, bring the choir with them!!!
God Bless,
LOL! You could send some kids to next year's Choir Day Camp here (this year's is sold out).
I hopwe they will persuade more Catholic Church to adopt Anglican useage.
