Reply to "Does Neal Hughes Speak For The Episcopalian Church?"

Yes, I took the class in 1986 and was licensed then, and was also on the vestry for a 3 year term before I was 30 and elected to Annual Convention where we elected a new suffragan bishop, who is now the bishop of all Long Island, the largest in the USA in terms of membership, as it includes Brooklyn, Queens, and both Nassau and Suffolk Counties.
I fear I am too poor and notorious a sinner to become a deacon, though. But I can chant pretty good when necessary and know how to keep a censor lit: it's in the wrist and I taught many a lad and lass how to do it back in the day. I can drain that chalice with one swig, "in a dignified manner" as the rubric insists at both 8am and 10 am. The old ladies used to love it when I led Morning Prayer! The accent, you know.
