Adialyn Milien writes for Sharing God’s Good News, the weblog of the Diocese of Southeast Florida:

While in Washington for the Installation of the new Presiding Bishop, the Most Reverend Michael Curry, [Bishop Coadjutor Peter Eaton] met with several leaders in Congress, including those who represent Florida.

… “It was very good to meet some of our Florida political leaders,” the bishop said, “and I am delighted that there are a couple of Episcopalians among them. It is important for us to know each other so that we can find ways to work together for the well-being of our communities in the diocese, and I am looking forward to meeting our leaders from other parts of our region.”
