The Bishop of London |
A "Popemobile" to take me across King's Cross Station! |
My good friend E, (a priest of a mere twenty years standing!) came with me and helped me and without her I wouldn't have been able to go. We travelled by train and taxi to make things as easy as possible for me.
First I went to Lambeth Palace (the official home of The Archbishop of Canterbury) where "the cohort" was treated to a wonderful afternoon tea. Then coaches took us to St Paul's Cathedral where the Bishop of London, Sarah Mullally, presided at a memorable Eucharist.
Thirty years ago we were regarded with a great deal of suspicion by both clergy an laity. It would be hard to imagine the C of E without its clergy women today. Thanks be to God!
