Canon Gay & The King

Here’s a little story about the visit of an Elvis impersonator to an English Cathedral (whose Canon has a sort of unfortunate name).

Truro Cathedral is hoping to boost its congregation by enlisting the aid of an Elvis impersonator.

Here’s what we know about Bishop Bill of Truro Cathedral:

Bishop Bill, who loves cricket, poetry and bird watching, has been known to paddle a coracle, scale church towers, and even shepherd sheep through the city.

You gotta admit, folks, even as the ship takes on water in great gulps, Anglicans can still bring a smile.
