I haven't seen the rite.  I've read Julian, though, and for all of the
explanations of her use of "mother" for God, it still makes me squirm when I
read it.

Guys+:

Was wondering how many of you have seen the ECUSA Rite 3 Trial liturgy?  It
has two collects by Julian of Norwich that refers to God as a "mother".  I
got a copy of it from someone who attends an episcopal church in town two
years ago.

Back in the late 90's they comitted themselves to revising the 1979 BCP as
they did the 1928 BCP.  The information on revising the 1979 use to be on
line as a report from a synod held in the late 1990's.

If you have seen it what do you think of it?
