Jean-Pierre. It was a pleasure to meet you and speak with you at Mike's ordination. It was an amazing service. And your contribution was important. So many clergy. My first experience at an ordination. What Scott said to Mike applies to us all. I need to be more creative. Your sermon also reminds me that I need to accept "revelation" as a part of my life. Aloha has greater meaning to me than it did before Scott spoke to us all. Your sermon pleases me. I only wish it were a video so that I might "see" you on the screen in addition to hearing your voice.... So much for that. At St. Mark's there will be a video of last Saturday's ceremony. For purposes of "revelation" I recommend to you as book written by Jean Yves LeLoup.It is a commentary on the Gospel of Mary Magdalene in English. LeLoup is also on youtube along with Richard Rohr and others. That includes John Philip Newell who spends time at his Ghost Ranch Retreat Center: Casa del Sol. Again I encourage your to consider listerning to Placido Domingo and Sissel in their duet of Ave Maria. As well as Ave Maria in Spanish by Elina Caranca who is a Latvian mezzo-soprano. It brightened my day to speak with you. Basque that you are when it comes to heritage. Have you read Rudolfo Anaya's novel "Bless Me Ultima". Anaya lives in Albuquerque. Years ago I had the chance to teach at U of New Mexico. I am sorry that I decided to work elsehwere. Blessings to you. May your calling continue to bless others. Your are a blessing to me. I do know that. Your friend in Christ, John Saunders
