What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Carols at the Tron

    The Presbytery of Glasgow are having a Carol Service in St George’s Tron on Sunday afternoon.

    Details below
    —————————–
    Please support this if you are able. From the Presbytery Clerk of Glasgow.

    I am pleased to say that a Presbytery Carol Service will be held in St George’s Tron Church of Scotland, Buchanan Street on Sunday 23rd December at 3pm. The guest preacher will be Rt Rev Albert Bogle, Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. I would appreciate it if you could publicise this service as widely as possible, by written and verbal intimation (suggested wording below),
    encouraging members of your congregation to come and share in this service.

    It would be good to show that the living church has not left the building as the former Tron tried to publicise but that the living gospel is alive and well all over Glasgow.

    Very Rev Bill Hewitt

    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

    There is a series of books which are published over in America which is based on the gospel reading that we have had this morning. They are available over hear ? perhaps someone has seen them. They are based on the premise that on one unexpected day, individuals will be picked up from the earth…

    O sad, sad day. The Scotsman reports that Six Feet Under is facing the chop after the end of the current series in the US. No more David and Keith.Set in the states, it is very much the everyday story of Episcopal folk. It will be sadly missed in this Rectory and also, I suspect in…

    I know, I know. I have not put much on the blog this week. Let me see. By far the most significant thing I’ve done in the last 7 days or so was go to a service in St Paul’s Cathedral in Dundee. Say what you like about the Episcopal Cathedral in that city -…
