Retired Deacon Dudley Lippitt, the third woman to be ordained a deacon in the Diocese of Georgia, recently donated to St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Albany, where she served for more than a decade, a specially prepared book of her sermons. The book now is in the "St. Paul's Room," accessible to all. Re-enacting the presentation are present St. Paul's deacon Jim Purks, left, and proudly standing next to Deacon Dudley is her husband, Sam Lippitt, who lovingly collected the sermons--and some photographs to accompany them--and arranged for the printing of this valuable collection. (Thanks to Jim Purks for this news item.)
