A Most Wonderful Wife!

The photos in this News Letter were, again, taken by Doreen, who also took an active role in the services.. Indeed, I thank God for such a faithful helpmeet who has stood by me, through thick and thin, down the many years we’ve shared together. Not only has she been a wonderful wife, but also an active clergy wife! Yes, a breed who do more than would any average curate, by working behind the scenes.  And whereas a new breed of female curates basque in the attention their new and novel positions give them,  many a clergy wife receives little if any adulation keeping the daily chores and responsibilities of many a rectory, vicarage or parsonage runninfg smoothly

Indeed, I may be a little old fashioned, - and you certainly do not have to agree with me! -but I would choose for virtue any day the traditional clergy wife to that of a ‘dolly bird’; curate;  or –what is more common, and less appealing these days – a female dressed as close to a man as she can get, complete with shortened hair, a deep voice and an extra broad clerical collar. With every rightly orientated male worshipper I would say: “give us the ‘Dolly Bird’ image any day!
