Bishop James Orin Mote of the Original Province of the Anglican Catholic Church passed from this life at 8:45 p.m., 29 April at Indianapolis.
He was one of the original four Bishops Consecrated at Denver for the Original Province of the Continuum and a champion of the pro-life movement many times suffering imprisonment.
Joseph DeHart, Archdeacon, ACC diocese of the Midwest, at The York Forum.
It was my privilige and honour to know Bishop Mote and on one occasion to say Mass for him.
ReplyDeleteMy most vivid remembrance of him was at a diocesean synod where I ask him for a few minutes of his time. I told him that I was concerned about my anger which would at times boil up so much that I feared it was a sin.
He asked me what I was so angry about and I told him. He didn't even take a moment of reflection before replying, "You should be angry about such things!"
I really liked this guy.
May he rest in peace.
