So the other day I asked if her Synod would accept the gift of a slightly-used Pope; she declined, reminding me that they had separated from such men about 500 years ago.
I persisted, telling her that THIS Pope would be acceptable; after all, just this Sunday, he preached this:
"In the presence of the Eucharist, Jesus who becomes bread, this simple bread that contains the entire reality of the Church, let us learn to bless all that we have, to praise God, to bless and not curse all that has led us to this moment, and to speak words of encouragement to others." Pope Francis
She looked at me for a moment, then said "That's not what Catholics believe!"
We did agree that the Unitarians might take +Francis, however.

Send him to Rick Warren. He seems enamored of Frankie.
