Lady Father on Life

Today we discussed the season of Epiphany, and we are still saying Merry Christmas!!  Wonderful to be back on air after our Christmas break.  Listen to this archived show then join us next week for our continued celebration of Epiphany.

Join the Lady Father every Saturday afternoon at 3:00 pm for discussions on "life" and readings from the Rev. Susan Bowman's memoir, "Lady Father." This is her story - chronicling her perilous journey through the ordination process in the Episcopal Diocese of Southern Virginia in the 1980's, when women were not encouraged to apply, nor were they welcome. Her Bishop, the Rt. Rev. C Charles Vache' was an adamanant opponent to women's ordination and he told Susan that he could not ordain her, but in an unprecedented "about-face," he not only signed her application to seminary but helped to support her throughout seminary.
