What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • The Forum: Frikki Walker

    Last Sunday the speaker at our Forum meeting was Frikki Walker, St Mary’s Director of Music.

    His forum was a tour de force and kept the audience entranced as he educated, opined and inspired us. Together we talked about favourite music, the composer he would most like to be locked into a church with, what makes a musician and what makes music at St Mary’s so special.

    We thought about what matters most, the music or the words. And we had a go a the question that was raised in a forum a few weeks ago as to whether it matters whether a church musician believes.

    Take a look.

    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

    You can have 5 points if you know what this is:                  Sinjoro, malfermu niajn lipojn.     Respondo. Kaj nia buŝo deklaros vian laŭdon.     Presbitero. Dio, rapidu nm sa vi.     Respondo. Sinjoro, ne prokrastu nin helpi.
