• The Knitting Collect

    At this time of year when we think of All Saints we get a collect that always makes me think of this picture of Herself knitting.

    KnittingMadonna

    Almighty God, you have knit together your elect in one communion and fellowship in the mystical body of your Son Christ our Lord: Give us grace so to follow your blessed saints in all virtuous and godly living, that we may come to those ineffable joys that you have prepared for those who truly love you; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.

    I don’t know whether Almighty God likes knitting us all together but I can easily imagine Our Lady having a go.

    (Yeah, I’ve given up on wittering. Transpires Q, in which I wrote that thing, was too CPU-intensive for the poor wee colo-server to cope with when bots came knocking, so it had to go; it’s all-but a dead language now anyway…)

    Mental. On my ‘to do’ list for today was to write a ‘back blogging’ post…

    Very strange!

    Think of it as the Holy Spirit, Nick.

    Or alternatively think of it as synchronicity as many of the rest of us might do.

    Glad you are coming back.

      So it does. Thanks, I’ve updated the link.

      I usually read Fr David’s blog in google reader. What an exotic layout it has in real life!

    My dears, I can only wish I were as exotic in real life!

    Hope Nick starts blogging again too! He did a post reviewing The Dark Knight once, which is more down-wit’-da-kidz than highfalutin’ praepostorial theatre reviews 😉 (that said, do hope you do The Habit of Art! :-))

      Thanks John – you’ve already got a nicely behaving rss feed for your content but I can’t find one for comments.

  • Where is the internal discourse?

    One of the questions that came up last week at our Vestry day away was, “Where is the internal discourse of the congregation going on?” It was a good question and interestingly, several of those present said that the internal discourse of the congregation was partly going on here on this blog. I agree with…

  • Quicklinks

    Quicklinks Damian Thomson has – Its all over for the Archbishop. This contains the memorable accusation that in forcing Jeffrey John to resign, Archbishop Rowan became the man who laid down his friend for his life. All the more vulgar for being true. Gaping Void has an excellent piece about blogging which contains this: “Having…

  • Music Planning

    Well, it would be nice to do it again, on Easter Day. Yes, it would. The only problem is, the congregation always want to join in. Mmm. They start humming along at first and then they start singing. It would be fun on Easter Day though. Yes, it would. As the Gradual? Oh yes, definately,…

    The House of Lords has passed the Sexual Orientation Regulations which will come into effect in April in Scotland. I’ve already written a lot about the attitude of certain religious adoption agencies to these, and I will not repeat that now. There has been such a focus on adoption, that a lot of the detail…
