It's still a wild and crazy ride at St. James, Baton Rouge, where we expect
our interim to be in place for another year, but where we've also raised
$2.2M to make emergency (50 years in the making) repairs to our 1894 brick
and soft pink mortar church (
http://stjamesbr.org/documents/CampaignIntroductionBrochureFINAL.pdf for
any interested), and I've been limited to skimming the list every 24-48
hours for news and prayer with and for you.
But, where better to turn with an Anglican question?!
Page 16 of the BCP states that ".,..the feast of [a church's] patron or
title may be observed on, or be transferred to *a* Sunday, except in the
seasons of Advent, Lent, and Easter."
I read that *a* as, potentially, *any* ... e.g. St. James' day is July 25,
but we could observe the feast of St. James on Sunday, September 10, or May
28, if desired.
Does anyone have experience moving a feast date so liberally?
Thanks, and
Peace,
Jo
