Some excerpts from today's entry:
Today (Friday), we leave for Canterbury, where the bishops have been gathered in retreat since Wednesday. After all the planning and praying, I still don't know what to expect.
Lights, cameras and reporters focused on you, most likely. Hint: Giving interviews and appearing on BBC2 does not a "quiet presence" make.
I still don't fathom why my presence in their midst would be such an affront.
Oh, I don't know. See Report, Windsor, or this statement from an earlier meeting at Lambeth:
We must make clear that recent actions in New Westminster and in the Episcopal Church (USA) do not express the mind of our Communion as a whole, and these decisions jeopardise our sacramental fellowship with each other...This will tear the fabric of our Communion at its deepest level, and may lead to further division on this and further issues...
For those playing the Simple Country Bishop (tm) drinking game, here are the stats on today's post:
I: 14
We: 1
Me: 10
Mine: 10
Total count: 35
God: 0
Lord: 2
Jesus: 2
Christ: 0
Total count: 4
