I love Trinity Church

 I've loved every church I've served.

St. James in Charleston, WV--a black church until we were integrated during my time there. It was the smartest congregation I served since many of members were teachers and administrators at a prodominately black college.

St. Paul's in New Haven--more educated because of Yale and very liberal.

St. John's in Waterbury another integrated church with lots of folks from the islands.

The Middlesex Cluster--three very different churches in that county but all willing to put up with my far-left views.

And now Trinity for several years. Liberal again and quite small--25 is a large Sunday crowd.

I've been blessed to serve churches that put up with me.

I retired from full-time ministry after 21 years at St. John's. Middlesex and Trinity used me a few days a week.

I've lived a good priest's life and the Episcopal Church's retirement payments make me better paid than when I was full time!

I couldn't ask for anything more....
