Catholic nun leads reformed seminary

The Touchstone Magazine blog notes a curious phenomenon:

The appointment of a Roman Catholic nun as dean of San Francisco Theological Seminary illustrates the truth of the saying “to be Reformed is to be ecumenical”, says the general secretary of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches.

Earlier in June Elizabeth Liebert became the first Catholic sister to be named as dean of a Presbyterian seminary in the United States. San Francisco Theological Seminary is a school of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).

I didn’t realize that to be Reformed was to be ecumenical! I don’t know if I’m more surprised at the Reformed side or the Catholic side.
