I enjoyed listening to this session. I am sorry I missed last Wednesday. It did stand out to me something that Pam alluded to and that is that the consecration is in a way just a public recognition of what God has indicated in the life of the indicated individual. The other thing I noticed is the importance of sympathy for the poor and needy. I thought about the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15. One final question that came to mind is if the Anglican Church has ever had cardinals like the Catholic Church. See you next Wednesday.

Good observations, Randy! The Anglican Communion has not ever had Cardinals, because the main job of a Cardinal is to elect the Pope.
