What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Holy Week starts with joy

    Many thanks to all those who made Palm Sunday so special at St Mary’s. (I’ve been ill for a fortnight, so it wasn’t down to me!)

    Palm Sunday

    What kind of sermon is this supposed to be Kelvin? You never did like sticking to o­ne story, but this takes the biscuit. You told them more about what you were not going to say than about what you were going to say.

  • Knowing me, Knowing you. Aha?

    Just back in from an evening in the synod hall with 20 members of the congregation. This was prompted by my being told a while ago that it would be good for people to have a chance to get to know me. I’m not sure what that means. After all, I’m such an easy person…
