• The Kalendar for 2022 – 2023 is available free!

  18/09/2022

  For years now, I’ve produced a Kalendar for the Scottish Episcopal Church with all the bible readings set out for the year.

  In the past I’ve sold it for around £4. For a range of reasons, I’m not going to be selling it this year but am releasing it online so that anyone can download it and print it out for themselves.

  It is available right here: Kalendar 2023

  Anyone who would like to make a donation because they enjoy the Kalendar so much and want to encourage me to keep doing it is welcome to do so via paypal.

Tomorrow morning (Saturday 9 January 2016) I’m having a coffee morning for people in the congregation who…

  Following recent revelations, this will be the year that former Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey finally shuts up. Expect no silly press releases on the eve of Church of England Synod. (From Carey anyway). The Columba Declaration recently leaked to the press will not in fact be adopted unamended by both the Church of Scotland…
