Dear Carole,
So you are one of us! Good for you!
An uncle of a friend of mine, an Anglican priest, very High Church, went down to Florida for a vacation - he changed places with another clerical friend at an Episcopal parish down there, equally High Church.
He told me that after the Eucharist, some parishioners approached him to say, "We see you commemorated the U.S. President, Father."
"Yes," came the reply, "When I am in the U.S., I commemorate the President."
Seeing their surprise, he immediately asked, "And who does your pastor commemorate?"
The reply came with all seriousness, "He commemorates the Queen!"
