I do like ‘try to wind everyone as far up the candlestick of joy as I dare’. St Mary’s does have natural advantages, which let it succeed as it does. However, I really do not think other churchs need to make so much of their natural disadvantages…

In a surprise move, the Anglican Church in Canada seems to have elected a man to be its next archbishop. Fr Fred signed the same pastoral statement about the usual topic that the Scottish Bishops signed after the last Lambeth Conference. Fred Hiltz is married, [to a woman] and has one son.
