Many theologians believe that mysticism cannot be set down in a
systematic form. The faith of the mystics is thought to be such a
fragile thing that it disintegrates if one attempts to explain it
in theological terms. This is just not so. It is not what one
believes about God, but rather what one does with Him that matters.
This volume assembled biographies of five extraordinary leaders of
the Old Catholic Church and autocephalous church movement: Arnold
Harris Mathew, Rudolph de Landas Berghes, Joseph Rene Vilatte,
Carmel Henry Carfora, and Aftimios Ofiesh. Complete with

Bishop Karl here pens the delightful account of his long-time
companion and traveling partner, Rufus, a big, red Irish Setter
rescued from an animal shelter. Interspersed with humorous details
of Rufus's experiences with friends and acquaintances are truly
moving remembrances of Rufus's methods of dealing with Bishop
Karl's wife, Nancy, during her terminal ordeal with Parkinson's
Disease and advanced dementia. The dog not only provided a daily
companion for her, at times preventing her from wandering, but also
became adept at using his large well-padded frame to cushion her
many falls. Rufus also accompanied Karl for thousands of miles
during his travels, always making himself welcome in any venue. For
animal lovers everywhere.

Here's the newest revised and expanded edition of Bishop Karl
Prter's standard guide to the independent Anglican, Catholic, and
Orthodox Bishops located in North America. These episcopi vagantes
owe allegiance to no major church body, but, in the best tradition
of the early apostles, have either established small independent
parishes to serve the faithful, or wander from place to place
preaching the Christian gospel. The Directory is arranged
alphabetically by surname or religious name, with complete
addresses. All scholars of the independent Catholic and Orthodox
churches will welcome Bishop Karl's newest edition to the growing
literature on autocephaly.
