And Yet Another Swimmer...

Giles Pinnock, the Anglican priest who has just resigned from his parish because he has decided to convert to Catholicism, put up a post asking prayers for another priest has done the same thing, on the same day.

The other priest's wife, Blondepidge, is already Catholic, and she has her own blog. Unfortunately, the decision to leave home and lose income has happened at the worst possible moment - she's waiting to start a full-time degree with a view to going into teaching, and, as well as having a six year-old and a young baby, she's just discovered that she's pregnant again. Possibly with twins...

Blondepidge bravely explains why, despite the encouragement of her doctor to have an abortion, she and her husband have chosen to continue with the pregnancy. Unfortunately, there have been some really horrible comments made, so do pop on over and redress the balance.

Shucks, Mac. You beat me to it again!

I've been trying to find a few minutes to post on Blondepidge, her family's courageous decision and her great blog.

Don't they sound a marvellous family!
