Worth
Noting
And here's to you, Bishop Robinson: Susan Russell and Barack Obama salute the retired Bishop of New Hampshire. (Huffington Post)
The New Archbishop: Matthew Groves writes for ResPublica. 'The Archbishop [...] has an important role in national life, to act as a custodian and advocate for older and more selfless values. This is not a left or right wing position. It challenges politicians across the spectrum to take into account that there is much more to our nation’s values than the narrow ideological critiques that either look to the market or entitlement to equality at the expense of the social fabric.'
The Next Presiding Bishop: The US Episcopal Church's Joint Nominating Committee for the Election of the Presiding Bishop now has a twitter account and a Facebook page. |
