Question for Rev

[lknick]

Rev, what happened to the photo of you in your class A's? "A picture is worth a thousand words"--or something like that.

You're looking for a photo of me? In a Tux? Or what?

I just thought the photo in vestments was great.

My late wife's father, who was a Lutheran bishop, always called his vestments his 'Class A's' but I guess 20 years as a chaplain does things to you.

revneal-

I like your new picture too. :) The other did not do you justice, IMO.

In his picture, he has his collar on, doesn`t that count for class As?.....jean

I loved the PastorCam photos.

Ah! Ok!

You mean this one?

It's an old one ... 8 years old, actually. I like the new one of me in my black robe, red stole, and tab collar more. Yet, I look more like a protestant wearing just the black geneva gown and stole, but has a "classy" feel to it too.

Here are a couple of photos of me celebrating the eucharist.

Now THAT is an example of my "Class A" Vestments. I've lost 40 pounds since those were taken, and I've added the beard. :)

[RevNeal]

Thanks, ekerr19! I appreciate that! :)

[RevNeal]

No ... in my newest photo I'm wearing just a tab clergy shirt, my black geneva robe, and a red stole. That would be "Class B," or somewhat more protestant, vestments. :) Class "A" vestments would be more Anglican or Catholic, and would include Cassock and Surplice and/or Alb, Chasuble and Stole. See my prior post with the photos.

What does THIS have to do with cruising? Not a blooming thing! :) Just a pastor in his Sunday bloomers! :D

I loved the PastorCam photos.

Gee ... thanks. :)
I've not run the cam in a while ... when I'm at home I'm almost never at the desktop computer anymore. I suppose I should move the cam back to the office and run it there more, huh? I think I'll do that tomorrow.

revneal-

Congratulations on the 41 lb loss! Not only is that a huge milestone, it is something to be very proud of... my DH only had 9 - 12 lbs to loose on SBD but he sticks with it for me - I have a few more to lose than he... :)

You look great & I'm sure your congregation loves you, the pics are great - my brother recently relocated to the Dallas area and is still looking for a church - can you email me at lskerr "at" comcast "dot" net? - I've read many of your posts and believe my brother would fit into your community quite well - he is also willing to drive a bit for church... he is a great person, has been single for a while, owns his own business and believes in family & community. He has always been very active in his church - willing to donate his time in anyway he can - big brother, building habitat for humanity, etc... a good catch for any single women ... oops, I shouldn't go there!

aaaaawww Rev, you look more classy in your class B pic!
I like that one ! maybe its the beard :) and congrats on the weight loss!

[RevNeal]

Thanks, guys!

[Ziggy7]

Thanks, guys!

Guys !!!! ummmmmm not me LOL
Ziggy7 is 100% female :) LOL

[RevNeal]

"guys" as in the yankee non-gender specific reference, similar to "y'all." :D

[ekerr19]

ekerr is 100% male - ekerr19 is 100% female...

Now a pastor in his bloomers is a terrible thing. Once saw my father-in-law crawling into his closet wearing only his collared shirt and BVDs. Now that was scarey. Guess you could call that pastoral BDUs.

Now all we need is Revneal in Class 'A's and shorts on a cruise (LOL).

ROFLMHO ... that's a fantastic image!!!!!!! :)
If you don't mind me wearing shorts with a pair of black gradient compression socks! :D personally, that looks so tacky I just wear long pants all the time.
