Prayers for the Diocese of San Joaquin

For a Church Convention

Almighty and everlasting Father, you have given the Holy Spirit to abide with us for ever: Bless, we pray, with his grace and presence, the bishops and the other clergy and the laity assembled in your Name, that your Church, being preserved in true faith and godly discipline, may fulfill all the mind of him who loved it and gave himself for it, your Son Jesus Christ our Savior; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

For the Unity of the Church

Almighty Father, whose blessed Son before his passion prayed for his disciples that they might be one, as you and he are one:
Grant that your Church, being bound together in love and obedience to you, may be united in one body by the one Spirit, that the world may believe in him whom you have sent, your Son Jesus Christ our Lord; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

ALL the doors have been flung open in San Joaquin, even the creaky old closets...there is NO PLACE TO HIDE...come out, come out wherever you are, it's all safe now as the self-loathing grandiose +dilatante is on the run and sanity is being restored throughout Death Valley again...now, isn't it time for John-David Schofield to reach out for HELP? Come on JD, The Episcopal Church WELCOMES everyone and you're a everyone again!

Naked Pictures? Am I to be subjected to David Allen showering (without proper warning) and smiling boldy (to top things off)? I'm afraid to type...just what new, and better, revelations may appear before me...ah, what the heck, forget I ever mentioned John-David, perhaps he's happy as a clam grinning and bearing *it*...now, about my oath...I can't remember what I was thinking of...ah well, nobody is perfecto (please say your not)!
