Fr. Adam,

I found this via your (great) post on Episcopal Cafe! Your writing is captivating. I am a layperson several hours southwest of Sewanee. Almost 15 years ago, I went through
the United Methodist process because *I* thought it was quicker; wanted to accomplish a couple of things for my parents. My father suddenly became ill with cancer. Their
committee told me “No” to a deferment; which I had gotten from the seminary(I realize such a decision is not reflective of all such committees) and my pastor and his wife felt it necessary to take me to lunch to inform me of what I could and could not do as a layperson … Well, duh, I never considered myself anything but a layperson. So I fled back to the welcoming arms of The Episcopal Church. To make a long story short, seven years later I moved, got married and became an active layperson in a rural parish. I look forward to reading more of your blogs.
Peace

Greetings Adam,
I just found your blog and it is awesome! I am 28 years old and in the discernment process for ordination as a priest. It is great to know that there are other people of our generation who are answering God’s call to service as Priest.

Miss you around Trinity, but we know you’re keeping them in good shape in MA. Congratulations on your coming marriage. Ruby keeps up the pre-service music at 7:30 with her hymn renditions.

Hi Adam,
I found this via your (great) post on Episcopal Cafe, and was really struck by the tag-line “one of the first Millennials to be ordained priest.” I guess I am too–I’m Canada, in the diocese of Montreal. There’s a few of our generation around here, ordained and in seminary.
Anyhow, it’s great to find a fellow traveler.
Pax.

Adam:

I thought you might appreciate the following link, which is about an older organist and a young curate who have different ideas about music:

I enjoyed having the opportunity to talk with your father last week.
