• General Synod

    You can find coverage of the General Synod of the Scottish Episcopal Church on twitter at http://twitter.com/secsynod
    (It is me who is tweeting).

    Questions welcome either to that account or to me on @thurible.

    There are details of how to follow the synod over on http://www.scotland.anglican.org including details of the live audio feed.

    “brutal”, “lots of noise”, “lots of unease”, “rabbling”.

    Yes indeed, and that’s why I won’t be there next year. If I manage to find somewhere else with quiet calm dignity then I shall go there, otherwise I’ll be at home watching TV and not missing it.

    I generally like the services at St Mary’s, well, apart from Eucharist but that’s a personal thing, but I’m afraid to say last night didn’t hit the spot for me in any way shape or form. No dignity.

    I’d be sorry not to see you next year, Layclerk. I’d say that there was great beauty, peace and dignity at many moments during the Thursday evening, though not indeed during the Stripping.

    Arrests tend not to be pretty. But then you know that.
