The Priesthood of the Virgin Mary, by the Amiens Master, 1437"The stone that the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone, and it is marvelous in our eyes." -- Psalm 118

UPDATE:
I looked up the painting. It's a panel painting in the Louvre.
Anyone up for a world wide Episcopal Communion with a mission in London?
ReplyDeleteI woke up this morning to fantastic news: “L.A. diocese elects first lesbian bishop” on the front page of the L.A. Times! Finally a reason to be proud that I live in Los Angeles. Welcome to L.A., Bishop Glasspool!
ReplyDeleteIf +Rowan and +John keep throwing the Churches moral authority away the Queen and Parliament may just invite us to replace the CoE...apparently, creating a good example of living healthfully at The Body of Christ, isn´t as popular with the boys as sins of omission and/or degradation on command (remembering Bishop Robinsons non invitation to The Lambeth Conference and recally the Gafconners avoiding the place entirely because Lambeth was corrupted). Yikes, it´s a walk-in!

ReplyDeleteI'm going to be in LA (area) for Christmas: what a great time and place for offering thanksgiving! :-D
Furthermore: that's a great pic, Doug. What do the anti-WO yahoos say about it?
ReplyDeleteI don't think the anti-WOs know about it. They don't think much about "culture" anyway. It's all about the Bible or Magisterium. I doubt they would have the patience for anything as untidy as art -- of any period.
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah! An Episcopal Communion sounds wonderful!!
