Almighty Father,
whom truly to know is eternal life:
teach us to know your Son Jesus Christ
as the way, the truth, and the life;
that we may follow the steps
of your holy apostles Philip and James,
and walk steadfastly in the way that leads to your glory;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

This Day in Maney Family History
I was ordained as an Anglican priest five years ago today at St. Luke’s Anglican Church, Fairlawn, OH by bishops Roger Ames and Frank Lyons. Bishop Lyons bopped me on the top of my head with a Bible (symbolizing my being under its authority) and it sounded like a hollow melon being tapped. Feel free to draw your own conclusions about that!
I remain astonished at God’s call to ministry and ever thankful for being part of the Anglican Church in North America, for our diocese and its leadership, for St. Augustine’s Anglican Church in Columbus, OH, and for our Leadership Team.
