Update:
Well, as a young cousin of mine says, "Sh*t's about to get real up in here."
D___, the judgmental offended friend, came up to the organ loft and announced that she had made a decision - she is going to write the retreat leader and ask why the "handsome hubby" is shown on another website at gay rights event, posing with his partner. And why she found the retreat leader's picture on a school page, posing with another woman and the other women's kids, named as "co-parent" to those kids. (sigh) She said she was giving me one more chance to "spill the beans". I didn't. I just told her to do what she felt was right, and that their home life was none of my business.
Secrets are hard to keep these days. See, D____ was all fired up about the retreat she attended. When she learned that I had once traveled with this group, she just wouldn't leave me alone. She was following me around, asking all sorts of questions about how she could get hired to work with them. (She had written them more than once, and they kept telling her that they had no openings at this time.) I kept putting her off - I wasn't "hired", I was just a friend who was asked to help out on occasion, chosen for my piano and organ church music skills. -- And I stopped working with them years ago. So I had no clue on how to get "in". But D____ wouldn't take my vague answers and started doing her own research.
I sent an e-mail to the retreat leader, to warn her, as soon as I got home.
No response yet.
