You meet the most amazing people around the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles, including the Rev. Lorenzo Lebrija, creator of TryTank, for a fascinating conversation about his innovating ministry … the Rev. Dr. Kate Cress and the Rev. Jon Feuss of St. James’ in the City in Los Angeles … Canon for Common Life Bob Williams and the Rev. Anne Sawyer, interim dean of St. John’s Cathedral … the Rev. Mike Kinman of All Saints Episcopal Church Pasadena, flanked by incoming and outgoing senior wardens, Rise Worthy Deamer and Julianne Hines (I was along to talk about what’s up at the diocese) … our dozen deans from all over the diocese, at our first quarterly meeting of the new year … the Rev. Susan Stanton and the Rev. Ryan Douglas Newman, serving communion today at our weekly Holy Eucharist service at St. Paul’s Commons, Echo Park … and our lay and ordained leaders of African descent, for our monthly check-in.
