> Father+        Thanks for the reply. The rules are set down in the old
ECUSA canons about what is to be done in such cases. I regard ECUSA
canons normative and I suspect defacto most of what passes for canonical
publication in the wider Continuum do too.                              
                                                          For reasons of
healthI'm not much into kissing anything but traditionally one normally
busses  only the ring of ones specific Ordinary.                        
                                                           However,
under certain circumstances  one might enlarge the practice on an
episodic basis to teach a point.Blessings. GDVW+
