Exchanges
USA-->UK: Lewes, Delaware organist wants swap in England.
'Organist and Choirmaster is interested in doing an organist exchange, preferably in, or near, London for the month of July 2002. The
church, St Peter's Episcopal Church, is located in Lewes, Delaware, which is situated on the Delaware Bay by the Atlantic ocean. It is
near to many points of interest in New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Norfolk, and Washington. Will swap our three bedroom air conditioned
house and our automobiles. If you are interested, please contact George Bayley at GBayley470@aol.com'
USA-->EUROPE: San Francisco, California rector wants exchange in Europe.
'We have a flat with a panoramic view in San Francisco, California. Well appointed living room, dining room, large bedroom, study
could serve as extra bedroom. Dishwasher, washer and dryer, modern kitchen, fridge, gas stove. Carpeting, antiques, paintings, and photography
add warmth and charm. Two cars and garage are also available. Across the street is beautiful, green Dolores Park, with walks, play ground,
tennis court and soccer field. Streetcar to downtown San Francisco in fifteen minutes. Within walking distance of the flat are many fine
restaurants.
I am Rector of Trinity Church and have a four-week vacation. Ann and I would like a four-week exchange between June 15 and August 5, with
a rector or vicars home preferably in a city on the continent. The countryside in Italy or France would be fine, too. We would also
be interested in an exchange in or near London. We made exchanges in the recent past with St Jamess, Piccadilly, and Grovesnor Chapel,
Mayfair. I would like to do services during the exchange. If the exchange partner would like to preach and/or celebrate at Trinity, that
can be arranged but is not necessary. I have an associate and a number of clergy volunteers to take my place while I am on vacation. References
upon request'. Please email more information: twocromeys@earthlink.net

Vestments
Slabbinck: A Belgian vestment maker. Although Slabbinck are a firm catering primarily to Roman Catholics, our correspondent notes 'many
Anglican clergy I know, especially in Australia, wear vestments made by them. They make magnificent banners, etc as well. It's a lovely
site, telling you liturgical colour for the day as well as suggestions'. --
