Letter to the editor: The marriage vote -- while walking in my shoes : Bishops heeded God's will

Notes: "I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the courageous 14 bishops who voted against the resolution to amend the marriage canon. They listened respectfully and, in the end, stood firm and chose to lead, faithfully, in the way of the cross. The numbers made clear how many wanted this change to happen. If ever a synodical vote exemplified the words of our Lord on Gethsemane, 'Not my will but yours', this is it. It remains to see what tactics will not be employed to avoid the suffering, by those who are determined to have their own way". [Text of entire article.]
