To God be all the glory honor and adoration. It is the Lords doing and it is marvelous in our eyes. Not by might nor by power but by God’s special grace. I rejoice with you and yours my husband. I pray for more grace to continue to grow in life and in the Lord’s vineyard. Congratulations. Looking forward to that highest position in the Anglican communion for you in the near future. Remain continuously blessed sir.
