Grace -

I am sorry.  I was far less than clear.  I was thinking about the diocesan
policies that dictate how a retired rector and spouse must separate
themselves from the community in which they have lived for forty years or
more.

There is an irony here, though.  A retired priest must absent him or
herself from his or her former parish.  But, if they remain canonically
resident in the diocese, they must attend Annual Council, or submit a
written excuse.
