    I like those – especially the lion/lily/star approach from left field.

    There’s also the expression “God who loves us, and loves us, and loves us”.

    (A sermon, remembered years later, from a blogged transcript! Fear ye, etc. 🙂

    We had jaffa cakes at church as a symbol of the Trinity. Works for me!

    On Sunday afternoon I did wonder, what did Provost Kelvin say on Trinity Sunday? No, I thought, he will have got someone else to do it – I think last year there was a Baptism or something.

    So thanks for this wonderful surprise today.

    Lil has spent the morning building a Lego village – I have heard the quiet conversations of all the lego people – and thought to myself how good it is to imagine other worlds, other places and other people.

    And now that imagination should lead all of us to encounter God.

    Again, heartfelt thanks for these ideas –

    Two hundred and twenty five years ago today, something special happened in Aberdeen. Two hundred and twenty five years ago today, Anglicanism in the USA was set ablaze with the consecration of the Rt Rev Samuel Seabury, their first bishop.
