Live from New York!

It could absolutely NOT be a more beautiful spring day here in "The Big Apple" ...
.
Never mind the flight delays, jet lag and calendar juggling it took to get here, the daffodils are blooming ...
.
... the trees are blossoming ...

... and there is a blue sky over the chapel at GTS ... where we will soon gather for the opening service of Evensong -- scheduled to launch this "Anglican Covenant Conference" -- followed by dinner and then the first keynote address ...
.

... The Most Rev. Drexel Gomez (Archbishop of the West Indies) speaking on "The Case for an Anglican Covenant."

"Film" -- as they say -- "at eleven."
.
Meanwhile, for those familiar with GTS, here's a peek at the construction in progress ...
.
... quite a change from when we were hear last summer to meet with Phil Groves and explore the Anglican Communion "Listening Process!"
.
Here endeth the report from the field ... live from the Desmond Tutu Center in the heart of Chelsea Square ...


... Susan Russell, signing off for now. More to come as it comes!

  2. East Harlem in the house! Welcome to the "right" coast... ok, so yeah, I miss the left one. Glad we could offer you some LA-like spring weather -- enjoy, and we'll look forward to your missives from the GTS verbal jousting match.
