Scottish Episcopal Kalendar 2026

31/12/2024

For years now, I’ve produced a Kalendar for the Scottish Episcopal Church with all the bible readings set out for the year.

This year’s Kalendar is available online so that anyone can download it and print it out for themselves.
It is available right here: Scottish Kalendar 2026

Anyone who would like to make a donation because they enjoy the Kalendar so much and want to encourage me to keep doing it is welcome to do so via paypal. I used to offer printed copies at £5 per copy.

The summary of the Bishops’ Instruction on Fasting and Abstinence is available as a single pdf here: Bishops’ Instructions on Fasting

A rather minor point, but it’s OK to fall in love with your therapist. A therapist (should) be trained to explore this and use it to examine the underlying issues. Without succumbing to it, obviously.

  That final comma is *absolutely* important!

Should clergy date other clergy, or is it better for clergy to date a lay person only?

  I don’t see why clergy shouldn’t date one another.

I was married to a episcopal priest for 33 yrs, His previous marriage ended in divorce after 17 years, He reinvented himself as a voc rehab counselor with nys and had ties with the church as per diem for fill ins. This was unique. He loved it. My regrets are never severing his past full time priest life and fully embracing the current with 2 children of our own, Yes we had good times but I felt I was a fish out of water neither here or there. Harry died Feb 2014 we 3 are reinventing ourselves in the here and now but always look back- what if, how come, its hard. My advice. Know that special man in black frim the seminary. Immerse yourself in his life and know it would be quite unique.
