One response to “Visit of the Primus, the Most Rev Mark Strange”

  1. Ronnie Smith Avatar

    The absolute honesty and humility with which your Primus in SEC conducts himself is an inspiration to me, a retired but active A.C. priest in ACANZP, whose experience of some bishops has been less than inspirational.

Can anyone point me to persons blogging about the Church of Scotland? (And I don’t mean Episcopalians, I mean those who belong…
