Don't Mess With A Missionary Man.

Particularly one that can, and has, moved mountains. Sadly, Fr. Jerry Kramer, a priest and friend, resigned last week as rector of Church of the Annunciation in New Orleans. A local writeup is here.

Jerry, his wife Stacy, and the parishioners at Annunciation, are truly some of the epic heroes of the Katrina tragedy, and a better example of "living into" the Power of God you will not find. And I say that from personal experience with Jerry and the wonderful folks at Annunciation.

The loss also leaves our Diocese with one less strong, orthodox Anglican voice, which right now we sorely need. In so many ways, Fr. Jerry will be missed.
