A few years back, in a diocesan synod, the question was asked, "Will we ever have lay presidency?" the response (from a grown-up) was, "No. We'll call them OLMs!"
Following on from the Sydney ruling regarding deacons and others being licenced to preside at communion, it appears that this (along with many other 'initiatives' are set to lower the bar and reduce the theological integrity of those who minister even more!
Mind you, if I read this one correctly it appears that those 'deacons' who have presided were ordained women and I get the feeling that there is an element of hypocrisy lurking within this story.
Mmmm - I wonder?
