Here the Bishop lays hands upon the head of the ordinand, and prays:
Therefore, Father, through Jesus Christ your Son, give your Holy Spirit to Cristopher; fill him with grace and power, and make him a priest in your Church.
I felt it.
Didn't expect to. But God has a way of doing things I don't expect.
I need to think about it for a few days before trying to tell the story or describe.
It was glorious fun. Packed church. Friends from California, Virginia, New York, New Jersey, Houston, Dallas, Friendswood, Austin, including one from California who showed up unannounced at the last minute. Still have houseguests. The feasting and celebration continues.

Congratulations, bro. I look forward to hearing the story.
Many blessings to you!
Congratulations, and may the Lord continue to use the hell out of you! I was so sorry not to have been able to come. When I heard Jennifer Worley got to come, add jealous.
Blessings to you and to your family, and on your ministry.
