[Magdalen] (Re-)Introduction

[Ginga Wilder]

Welcome back, Ferdinand.  I joined St. Sam's in June, 1997.  I remember you
but I did not join many conversations back in that day.  I am an
Episcopalian in South Carolina.  When the bishop, most of the clergy and
parishes in SC left The Episcopal Church in October 2012, South Carolina
put itself back together as an Episcopal diocese of TEC.  We are legally
restrained from using the word diocese, but...that's what our geographical
designation is within TEC.  Things are crazy here but not as crazy as
before October 2012.  I am senior warden of a small new mission Episcopal
(TEC) congregation in SC and serve on the standing committee of The
Episcopal Church in SC.

Glad you are here and I look forward to your conversations.
