Whatever else is true, that new, hope-filled reality has dawned here in Canterbury. Over time the English have refined the means for curbing power. Their system weaves customs and traditions, committees and staffs, that check and balance power. As an Episcopalian, I find the show astounding, the process tedious and the subtlety daunting. This is not General Convention.
Power is exercised here with greater subtlety and grace.
Here there is a greater show of kindness. Here Church language, custom and theology play a far greater role. Here the Church looks and sounds more Christian, and perhaps it is. Distribute freely, with credit to United Voice for its reporting. Designed by Ted Slater .
