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."
