Coming out

This morning I "came out" to the Vicar and admitted that I'm a Reader. Her reaction was sort of interesting.

To rewind a little, you'll see from the last entry that during the week I had a meeting with the Registrar. Now, she deals with situations like this all the time, and she said "chances are, by now your Vicar will have already suspected".

Well, over coffee after Mass this morning, I exchanged a few words with the Vicar and suggested we "meet for a chat" sometime and she agreed that it would be a good idea. I then said "By the way, I suppose I ought to come clean and tell you I'm a Reader". Her initial response was "Oohhh! Now that explains a lot!" and then she got all excited.

She has suggested we have a meeting sometime after Christmas to talk about this. This seems to me to be a good idea.
