Email this page to a friend or enemy.     Source: (consider it) Thread: Purgatory: Credo: The Vote is In! Duo Seraphim Ubi caritas et amor # 256 Posted                        The Council has voted and the winners of Credo have been clearly discerned! They are: 1st Pyx_e who wins "God Matters" by Herbert McCabe 2nd Divine Outlaw Dwarf, who wins "Faith Seeking" by Denys Turner 3rd Doc Tor who wins "The Pursuit of Happiness - God's Way: Living the Beatitudes" by Servais Pinckaers ...and finally zealot en vacance wins "How to Read the Bible Every Day" by Carmen Rojas. We'll be in touch with the winners or the winners might like to PM IngoB with delivery details for their prizes. I'd like to thank everyone who entered Credo and all of those who voted. And most especially I would like to thank IngoB both for suggesting the idea and for his generous sponsorship of the prizes and his invaluable help to me in running Purgatory's very first competition.
