• Candidates for the Sin Against the Holy Ghost

    People sometimes ask me (and no doubt other clergy) what the sin against the Holy Ghost actually is – the one which cannot be forgiven.

    Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:

    It’s nice to know the names of the Vestry and Lay Office Bearers in Who’s Who? Do the Cathedral clergy not have names?

      Yes, we do. I’ll be adding a clergy page and will soon begin the process of rounding up photographs. I’ve added the names of the clergy to the who’s who page, meantime.
