A surprising find
A parishioner from St Wilfrid`s was at a jumble sale at a local Anglican church and was looking through the LP`s when she found two photos. She brought them to me. Here I am in my young days at the Synod of bishops on Europe in 1991. I didn`t realise I`d even lost them. I can remember my surprise when my mother, many years ago, decided to give a lot of my LP`s to charity. Strange to think they are still doing the rounds and these photos were among them. Spot the bishops!

The only Bishop I think I recognise is Bishop Michael Bowen from 'down south.'
ReplyDeleteNo, I`m sure he wasn`t there.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Archbishop Worlock 4th from left
ReplyDeleteYou`re right David. He was quickly chosen to be the chairman of this English language group and said he usually was. There is another English archbishop in the picture. Out of shot is the former archbishop of St Andrews and Edinburgh, Cardinal O`Brien.
ReplyDeleteWhat is happening in the first photograph - ordeal by comfy chair?
ReplyDeleteIn the first picture we are celebrating terce withlots of cardinals and bishops.
