  • Pilgrimage Days – Who on Earth Are You?

    Wordcloud graphic

    I’m looking forward to hosting two Diocesan Pilgrimage Days at St Mary’s on 20 and 27 February 2016 exploring the theme “Who on earth are you?”

    It is difficult to think of a better week for exploring our identity as Episcopalians but it isn’t going to be all about the Columba Declaration. We’ll be focussing on the things that we enjoy about our faith and the things that make us cherish the Scottish Episcopal Church as our place to live out a Christian identity.

    The day will include conversation amongst the pilgrims about where they have come from and things that inspire them. There will be a forum conversation with me about why I am an Episcopalian and how I came to value belonging to this church. In the afternoon there will be an Any Questions panel. Throughout the day there will be gentle worship and a chance to enjoy being together in the cathedral.

    If anyone wants to join it, all they need to do is bring a packed lunch – tea and coffee will be provided.

    The days begin at 10.00 and will end by 16.00.

    If you are coming, it would be helpful for you to let us know – please fill in the form on the cathedral website – www.thecathedral.org.uk

    I think this is a great idea. I’d love to be there but can’t. Will you publish answers to some of these answers on the blog? That would be great.

      I think it is probably an evening which won’t translate to the web that well, but I may well base future blog posts on the questions. And I’m always open to suggestions of what to blog about.

    Um – kids understand it? which of us does? Really really understand the depth and mystery of it all, I mean? Not me, that is for sure. As one who regularly takes communion with littlies, I think they grasp something – and which of us can really say more.

    I’m sorry to have missed this though I think Owen’s still a bit young for it (i.e. it’s hard enough to keep him going through a short Eucharist, much less a slow one – plus, you know, bedtime and all that) but I hope you’ll do it again sometime!

  • Murder. Crime. Poverty.

    Someone I met when I was down in Londonshire last week asked me where I was from. On receiving my reply, he pulled a face. “It’s a great city,” I spluttered, more out of petulance than anything else. “All I know about it is murder, crime and poverty,” was the response. Now, we all know…

    It is good to see Kimberly blogging again a little more – and I very much enjoyed her picture challenge. Particularly good for Epiphany and there is quite certainly more to be said.
