This is so cool! The world's first lesbian bishop! Read all about it here. I like her sense of humour:
When Brunne, who was a pastor in Stockholm for 16 years, was asked what she does to relax in her free time, she answered, “I read crime fiction. And I carve. The things you do to conform to Jesus, huh?”
Her partner Gunilla Lindén, who’s also a pastor, gave birth to their now 3 years old son after they entered a registered partnership. International journalists addressed whether this is a problem for the Swedish church, but Eva Brunne only joked, “Um, why? The backyard of the bishop’s house is really big enough.“
Perfect quote, about the backyard being big enough. Indeed, a good example of focusing on the problems that really exist and not wasting time worrying about imaginary ones.
SvarSlettYes, I thought it was great:-) I hope she keeps her sense of humour in this new job.
