Whilst working from home, I’m going to be updating the Daily Prayer resources that I make available.
Here are the files you need for saying Daily Prayer at the moment.
Kalendar for March – June 2020
Returning to God – Morning Prayer
Returning to God – Evening Prayer
Some days are particular feast days and need a different book. Here’s Morning Prayer for Feast Days.
(Evening Prayer for Feasts still to come).
Thank you very much for your very moving rendition of David’s Lamentation this morning in between the two readings. You were in excellent voice. I am surprised there are (as yet) no more comments but I am glad that the video held in there until your song was ended.
I will be putting in on my new IPod once I have bought it and,more importantly, got to grips with it.
A haunting and memorable moment……
Thank you for posting this Lamentation. As Muriel says, haunting and memorable. If ever I get to Glasgow again I can come to church and hear you in person.
It not only moved me to tears (not that hard) – it raised the hairs on the back of my arms – which is just about vanishingly rare. Stunning does not do justice to it. Just how profoundly the congregation were affected was heard in the quality of the silence which fell afterwards.
Thank you very much for this sermon and for the music accompanying it.
Considering the machinations of our leaders over the last few years, the accounts of David’s life are quite up to date.

Hypocricy at home and exploitation abroad is not my idea of an improved mankind or world.

Yes, someone said to me on Sunday that they did not think we had moved on at all. However, I think we have.
Clearly the whole world hasn’t moved on at the same pace or to the same place. However, I’d rather live in the UK with all its faults and failings than live in Burma or Zimbabwe or Afghanistan.
The lamentation is beautifully done, Kelvin.
I’m with your parishioner who said that we have not come so very far from the times of David.
Simply wonderful.
I loved the lamentation, Kelvin, having never heard it before. The sermon was very good, too. Thanks
Can you just suspend your cries of heresy whilst you read this one blog post? Because it will make you think, that’s why. What if Jesus chose the wrong brother on whom to found his church? What would the church look like if he had chosen Andrew instead of Peter? People rather like doing speculative…
Here’s the next of the videos that I recorded with Marion Chatterley of Waverley Care: marion chatterley #3.movie from Kelvin Holdsworth on Vimeo. In it we have quite a spirited conversation about HIV and the church. Marion explains to me why she thinks churches are making the HIV/AIDS situation worse in Scotland. Marion also gives…
The injunction “all may, none must, some should” is the classic prescription for how Anglicans deal with confession. However, it is worth thinking of it as a helpful way of thinking about church blogging too. The recent speech of the Archbishop of Canterbury in which he acknowledged the significance (and one suspects, in his mind,…
Hmmm…
