Found cool pic of Bishop Asbury:
You know what they say . . . when America began to settle the West and the missionaries headed out, the Baptists walked, the Methodists rode horseback, the Presbyterians took the stagecoach . . . .
.. . . but the Episcopalians waited until they invented the Pullman Car. . . . .
That is cool. I like they way they posed the horse. Neat cape, too. Men knew how to dress, once upon a time ...
Must go, I’ve misplaced a couple of children. I suspect they crept off and went back to bed, the slugs.
That’s not fair... the first church in Houston was the Episcopal church, and they conducted the services for all the denominations there, including Catholic and Jewish.
I had the privilege of attending the TLM this morning at the first Catholic church in Houston, a wonderful, glorious building completed in 1879.
