Remy in kitchen

Last night we opened a package at dinner: it contained a votive candle, and Remy, the protagonist of Pixar’s delightful movie ‘Ratatouille.’  Only one person in the universe could have sent such a missive: my friend, retired priest David Perry.

David’s ministry to me has been one of the things that continue to convince me that Grace exists.  David’s ‘rubber-stamp ministry‘ helped me (and Linda, too, I think) through some of the darkest hours of my confrontation with cancer. David, who spent much of his career with the national office of the Episcopal Church as an ecumenical ambassador, is, nevertheless, a bit of a character.

When walking with David, I’ve never known him to be able to pass a toy store. His office in New York once contained so large a collection of Jesus kitsch, that the presiding bishop had to ask him to remove it after a visit from a very serious Greek Orthodox prelate drew a comment. That he would send me Remy, with a Taizé votive candle, is no surprise at all. I can only be grateful that a wonderful spirit like David has graced my life…
