I see a few icons of shepherd.. so the question comes to my mind..
1 How many shepherds do we have?
2 of those, how many are ordained ?
Just curious

I personally am not a Sheperd, but my roommate, Douglas, was ordained by the Universal Life Church. He has begun referring to himself as a Sheperd, and takes a very non-specific, yet Christian stance, just as Book does. I believe he is also looking for vestments that most closely resemble Book's.. .as opposed to traditional Catholic stuff.

There are very specific references to Christianity in the whole "Sheperd" order.. .

==>"Fixing your BIBLE (with references to Noah's Ark and Eden)

==>"I've been following in the footsteps of a carpenter for some time" (It is widely accepted by Christianity that Christ was trained as a carpenter, like his father.)

So, while Douglas is not member of this site, please count him amongst you. I'll point him to the southdown abbey site.

Thanks. the more the better.. it is a big verse !
I doubt he will find the vestments, will probably have to make or have them made.

Would it be really bad of me to point out that abbey is spelt, well abbey, and not abby?

No problem, you work with what you can,
Still working on getting url with the E,
after that it will be a matter of forwarding URLs.
Sad to say the web graphics I will have to rebuild when I get the new URLs as I wanted graphics to match otherwise it would have look MAJOR odd, and I had a MAJOR computer crash in the middle of all the set ups and lost all my links..Trying to refind sources is a pain.
