Q. Dear Church Lady, I see that the June 13 service is on the Feast Day of G.K. Chesterton. Do you think we should worry that Certain Clergy of the parish (and I don't mean Fr. Gary) will try to wear a "Father Brown" shovel hat?? Sign me, Concerned
A. Dear Concerned, Black felt meets Altar Guild approval certainly, if worn with a black non-seersucker material in a non-Father-Brown severe cut, so your worry, although not unfounded, may be inconsequential. G.K.'s is a Minor Feast, but at least one churchlady is considering her own shovel hat and a re-read of The Man Who Was Thursday before dishing out the egg salad.
