When Mary Vincent married Peter Dally, an Episcopal priest, she expected to raise their family cradled in the security of a normal pastoral ministry somewhere in the Pacific Northwest. However, that all changed in 1980 when the Roman catholic Church announced that it would ordain married Episcopal priests in a program known as the Pastoral Provision. One of the first to apply, Father Peter was ordained a Catholic priest in 1985 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He served congregations there with Mary beside him until 1998 when he retired. Mary describes for the reader the challenges the couple faced in this very dissimilar religious culture, the warmth of the people of Oklahoma, the humor of their unusual situation, and the poignant events that make up their days. She tells how she and Peter coped with his mysterious occasional exclusion as a married priest, and the isolation and loneliness she experienced as the wife of a priest. This true story is an exciting and challenging adventure in living an improbable lifestyle. You're sure to enjoy this heartwarming personal account.
