Good to see Father Spanky supporting his brother clergy-person. Was this a funky Mass, Peter, or a plain 'Institution'?
Only the photo was funky, Ron!
The Institution was 'by the book' :)
Congrats Josh! And may you be mightily blessed so that you may be a blessing to Timaru in the days and years ahead. Love to those two women in your life: cyber hugs!
I know that 'to the pure all things are pure', but does Bryden need to refer to the TWO women in Spankey's life? This could well cause scandal in the territory of conservative evangelicalism!
I think Ron some light has dawned! I think I may have stumbled upon why you find what I mostly say difficult:
JOSH was my addressee, and this ex colleague from St C's has two delightful women in his life, Jo his wife and Phobe their daughter ...
Thanks, Bryden for the clarification. Just one point. The daughter's name:
'Phobe' and not Phoebe'?
Enjoy the typo pun Ron!!
Very excited for Josh and for Timaru - was very sad to miss the induction, glad to hear it went well.
There are two (key) women in Spanky's life too - the same arrangement as Josh's :)
