    Hi,

    I happened by because I was googling o­n the word “thurible”.  I'm a US Episcopalian, and I'm currently in the Inquiry process about becoming a vocational Deacon… which, as you know, is supposedly a lay ministry. 

    But I know what you mean… we do a commissioning sort of a thing every year for our vestry and teachers, but it's all ad hoc and out of various slightly suspect books of supplemental rites.  It would be niceto have an approved liturgy for blessing a Lay Eucharistic Minister, for example.

    If you don't mind, I'll be about again… feel free to look at my blog, http://www.livejournal.com/users/lirazel/.

    I'm 50, with a lot of younger friends due to interests in Japanese animation and science fiction and such… so please pardon us of some of the language is even more opaque than is commonly the case when people from the British Isles and Amurrrricans try to understand each other.

    Regards (how appropriate for viewing someone's blog!)
    Lirazel

Now, I’ve used skype plenty of times for chatting to friends, but this was the first time I’ve used it for a businessy meeting. That kind of thing clearly can’t replace all…

  • Concert for Christchurch – Running Total

    Did I happen to mention the current running total raised from last night’s Concert for Christchurch? Well, £4155 is pretty good going for one evening of fundraising, isn’t it? Could be more to come in yet.

  • Last night’s concert

    Anyone wanting to get a flavour of the Concert for Christchurch that we held last night in St Mary’s can do so by listening to Radio Scotland’s Good Morning Scotland programme from earlier today. You can find it online at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00yrn6g and the segment you are looking for starts 1 hour, 49 minutes and 45…
