General Crazy

I arrived in Anaheim today after a two-day visit with friends in Los Angeles. As much as I missed LA, I remember why I don’t live there anymore. Even so, it was so good to see Gwendolyn and all my friends at St. Mary’s.

As I write this post, I’ve just gotten back from a reception given by Integrity. President Susan Russell gave some rousing remarks, and I met the Integrity “whip”. All signs are good for the Integrity platform at this Convention. Time will tell.

The ABC group decided, sort of, to make some changes to our original plans for our meeting with the Archbishop. Folks noticed that we have generated too much content for our 30 minute meeting, so now we’re going to focus not so much on theology and context but rather on our personal stories. This makes sense to me, since it’s not likely we’re going to say anything that the Archbishop hasn’t already heard, in terms of theology and context. However, we know for certain that he hasn’t heard our stories. So I need to spend some time now reworking that.

I also ran into the former director of EUIP. I’m very glad to be cosponsoring a resolution commending the work of the newly formed Episcopal Service Corps. I’ll post a link to the resolution after I find it.
