Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding minister to preach in Williamsburg this weekend

From Williamsburg-

If there had to be just one indication of the very public nature of the Bishop of London's job, perhaps it would be a note received by the Right Reverend and Right Honorable Richard Chartres in the spring of 2011.

It was just a few days after he had spoken at the wedding of Prince William and Catherine, the newly designated Duchess of Cambridge – an event witnessed by a worldwide audience of between 300 million or 2 billion, depending on which estimates you choose to believe.

"I received a message from someone in the States, in Los Angeles," Chartres said, "telling me that they had downloaded my sermon onto their device – and they were exercising to it." He paused for a moment, and then added: "I found that to be quite extraordinary."
