He is not studying to be an episcopal priest. He is studying to get an mdiv, which happens to be a requirement for priesthood. Read this: http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/story?section=news/local&id=5266263

A Bishop has to admit him to “the process” of being a priest. Then he will become a postulant and then a candidate, a deacon and then a priest, God willing and the people consenting and if a Bishop is willing to ordain him.

Where I come from, if I go to seminary without permission of a bishop, it disqualifies me from the process, more than likely. This is annoying, because they make it sound like it is a done deal when it is not. You can’t just say “I wanna be a priest” and be one in the Episcopal Church. There is a process and it is rigorous (tests, more tests, 4 days of exams, psychiatric exams , background checks and lots of letters of recommendation). Not that he would not be a good one– that is not my call. I just wish the press would be more accurate in their information (like the above pasted link is).
Peace

From the NYTimes, this is Maureen Dowd’s column today. I think it’s appropriate to post a link to it here.

I do wish McGreevey would have remained a Roman Catholic. The Catholic Church has lost so many good people and I think that the Church would have used someone like McGreevey

So in other words, the pain he put his family through really doesn’t matter – not so nice.

So many reach a point of utter despair, and find solution Jim McGreevy has found. A couple of applicable quotes come to mind. “I came not for the saved, but for the sinner.” “Judge not, lest ye be judged.”

Henri Nouwen did similar work and helped us all to learn about more about man’s relationship with God. I pray Jim McGreevy will as well.

Nice. It’s possible you may have changed my opinion of him, although the image of his wife having to stand next to him during his ‘confession’ is hard to erase from my brain.

I haven’t been a churchgoer, but if Jim McGreevy becomes a priest and acquires a congregation, I might start. He’d have sermons very much worth hearing.
