I am still chuckling over John Laidlaw’s letter (More lay people, please, Feb. 2012, p. 6). He did mean it as a joke, didn’t he, when he suggested that our clergy should return to the practice of earning a lay livelihood? Now, if we could only organize our congregations to become sick or troubled or want funerals only on weekends when our priests would be free to attend to us.
