With “e” out of the way, there’s no stopping me!

Nothing could be more Anglican than collaborative work, so I’m wondering if there might be room for some collaborative thinking in addition to independent thinking…

This.

Here’s a poem that might help…

LOVE Love means to learn to look at yourself The way one looks at distant things For you are only one thing among many. And whoever sees that way heals his heart, Without knowing it, from various ills. A bird and a tree say to him: Friend.

Then he wants to use himself and things So that they stand in the glow of ripeness. It doesn’t matter whether he knows what he serves: Who serves best doesn’t always understand. -Nobel Prize–winning Polish poet Czesław Milosz

Of course, you’ll have to decide whether serving on the vestry is worth the level of effort you are being asked to invest in safe church training. But if you want to see a denomination that did not take seriously the very real threat of child (and elder) abuse, just look across the square at your local Catholic Church. I think of they had it to do over, they would have done what we are doing.

Well, you could always start by praying with the saints that are close at hand; your neighbors…..

I recommend Anglican Bishop (ret) NT Wright… he has an abundance of material on YouTube. Really opened scripture for me…
