You meet the most amazing people around the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles, including deacon, lay, and priest colleagues from the center of our diocese, aka Deanery III, hosted for lunch on Thursday by the Rev. Joseph Oloimooja and Holy Faith Episcopal Church in Inglewood … Archbishop José H. Gomez, for an impromptu chat about ecumenical possibilities … Bob Ross of Saint Mark’s Altadena, president and CEO of the California Endowment, for mutual discernment over breakfast as siblings of a certain age … our St. Paul’s Commons, Echo Park leadership consortium, brought together for their monthly meeting by Canon Bob Williams … and the Rev. Ryan Macias, who came in to chat with the Rev. Canon Melissa McCarthy and me.
