TAC/APCK Bishops on Pligrimage-2004
Toad on the Road
Good afternoon Toads and Toadettes,
The doctor will be out for about 24 hours as we are on the road to visit a parish somewhere in the United States. (C’mon, you didn’t think we make it that easy to see where we were, did you?)
An alert reader forwards the attached photograph from Fond du Lac, WI in the fall of 2004 as folks prepared to step off in the religious procession. For those who who need a scorecard for the players, shown, among others are Abp. Hepworth of the TAC and Abp. Morse of the APCK, along with three of the APCK bishops (+Florenza, +Wiygul and +Morrison) and some other folks.
Like Waldo, one has to ask, “Where’s the ACC crowd who had been there?” Guess their flights had to leave early.
We’ll be back Monday! And remember:
“If God had wanted us to be concerned for the plight of the toads, he would have made them cute and furry.”-Dave Barry

Nice to see Archbishop Hepworth carrying the fall volume of the current Liturgy of the Hours. No BCP for him! Not a criticism, just an observation.

A most interesting observation, and might we say, what sharp eyes you have!
We've enhanced the photo up to 400X and can only tell that he is carrying the program, which contained the entire order of service for the Mass, an an unidentifiable ribbon-marked volume. It could be Volume IV (Ordinary Time, Weeks 18-34)
of the LOH in the imitation leather binding, or a different volume altogether. (The Toad can't tell, particularly as his LOH is ofthe nifty real leather variety with genuine gilt edges-no shabby faux stuff for me, Toads and Toadettes.)
Do recall, though, if you were there. that Abp. Hepworth had done Evensong on Thursday (or was it Friday?), and, by all reports it was of the 1928 BCP. No Novus Ordo/dreadful Grail Psalm chantin' there, pally. Just good old "thee"s and "thou"s to a Coverdale beat.
