Post theological college, we are ONLY allowed to be in conversation with one parish at a time, and they are only allowed to consider one potential curate. Only if you have reached the end of the road with them can you look at any other vacancies...and the whole thing is very much masterminded by the Diocesan Director of Ordinands. Does such an animal exist in ECUSA?<BR/>The advice that I was given was to pay maximum attention to how you click with the potential training incumbent and sit light to the foibles of the church...better a mismatch of churchmanship than a colleague/mentor with whom you are at logger-heads. I went with that approach, found WonderfulVicar first off, and never ever wished I'd considered another curacy. <BR/>Prayers for you this week xKathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09171138485811816831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14608528.post-21748912700262158382009-01-18T10:10:00.000-05:002009-01-18T10:10:00.000-05:00Wow, busy!
