  • Inspirational Conversations: How to change the world

    Last week I had some inspirational conversations on Sunday with David Kenvyn, who is the verger at St Mary’s and one of the servers.

    David was talking about his involvement in the anti-apartheid movement.

    Now, lots of people in the UK can rightly think of themselves as part of that struggle, but David has been stuck right into it all his life. Indeed, he had first hand memories of Nelson Mandela and Trevor Huddleston.

    I found the whole conversation hugely inspiring and made me think a lot about the amazing gifts that people have to offer around the altar in St Mary’s.

    If you want a bit of inspiration, take a look at the videos.

    In my experience the cat is always in charge.

    It’s the one with the elegant pose and the natural air of authority.

    No idea, without having consulted the cathedral statutes on the relative positions of the Canon Feline and the Provost.

    The synod was inaugurated with a splendid Eucharist for St Columba’s Day. Fabulous music. The Primus spoke of Iona as being at both the edges and the margins as offering a model for the SEC. He also said, rather interestingly that as the SEC begins to consider the Anglican Covenant he could see that there…

    One of my many adventures of the last couple of weeks was travelling from Paris to the South of France by sleeper train. I rather like travelling by sleeper, but this was the first time I’d done it in France. French sleepers are a little different to the UK ones, not least in that there…

    Steven McQuitty who is a regular reader and occassional commenter on this blog has asked for suggestions of places to eat when he’s in Glasgow sometime soon.
