Worship was a major element in the 1986 Interim
Meeting of the House of Bishops held in San Antonio Sept. 20-25 with
each day beginning with Morning Prayer and Sunday and daily Eucharist at
nearby St. Mark's Episcopal Church. Here, Presiding Bishop Edmond Lee
Browning chats with choristers of St. Mark's before he dons his mitre
for the procession into the Sunday service attended by 176 bishops,
their spouses and guests and St. Mark's parishioners. In his sermon,
the chief pastor and primate shared his experiences at the installation
of South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu and praised the Nobel laureate
as "a Man of God called to be a prophet in his time."
