Here is what the printed announcements said, &#8220;We are privileged and very happy to welcome to St. Paul&#8217;s Mr. Robert Griffith, as student at The General Theological Seminary who will be serving as our Seminarian.  Mr. Griffith is a Candidate for Holy Orders from the Diocese of Ohio. Please introduce yourself to him, and by all means remember him in your prayers.&#8221;<br \/>\nI like the last half of the last sentence the most, because I certainly need them!  Officially, I&#8217;m not quite a candidate yet, just a lowly Postulant.  Candidacy will be this spring.  Father Cullen, the Rector, mentioned also that he didn&#8217;t want anyone coming up to him and telling him that they don&#8217;t like me, because he does.  This is a great little Anglo-Catholic parish with an incredible history.  I think I am very fortunate to have landed at this place.  The church is St. Paul&#8217;s Episcopal Church, Carroll St. in the Carroll Gardens section of Brooklyn.<br \/>\ncomments?  <a href=\"mailto:bob@hypersync.net\" title=\"e-mail me\">e-mail me<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday, I was officially introduced to my field-placement parish as their new seminarian.
