This really upsets me, especially when these and other Canadian Anglican leaders have bad-mouthed and inhibited the Anglican Essentials folks, calling us schismatic.

ReplyDeleteDear Gene,
ReplyDeleteYou call yourself "an ordinary anglican parish priest", ah but dear sir... you have it all wrong!
You are truly extraordinary!
Glad that your trip home was -just that.
May God richly bless you!
Please let Pat and I host you and Jude if you ever desire to come to Ottawa for a visit.
With respect and love,

The Psalm you quote is the same one that was running through my mind our entire trip. What a glorious country you hail from!
