Listening to Mariann Budde, Episcopal bishop of the District of Columbia, express her disapproval of Trump’s use of St. John’s Church for a photo op – after he had protesters tear gassed in Lafayette Park – I was reminded of Leo Frade, former bishop of Southeast Florida, who said that he became an Episcopalian in the ’60s because, instead of a collection of elitists, he found people who were socially conscious and politically engaged.
