What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Creative morning coming up

    The intention today is to spend a creative morning looking at upcoming issues of inspires, the magazine of the Scottish Episcopal Church.

    I’m trying to apply a broad theme to the magazines at the moment and so far as I can tell this seems to be appreciated by the readers.

    Upcoming themes are Journey/Pilgrimage/Place, The Communion (Anglican and Otherwise) and something on buildings/sacred space. I’ve a notion that we’ve not really done much on liturgy and I’m going to be discussing some ideas with a couple of other people today.

    I rather like doing this work but being the Editor of a magazine and running a cathedral are not always terrible compatible occupations. Deadlines and the liturgical year don’t always play nicely together.

    I’m always so grateful to the writers of the articles. Some people have the gift of generous writing – fast, accurate and interesting.

    They are a delight.

    I’ve asked before in the magazine itself whether people want to suggest themes for issues and two of the themes listed above come from people’s suggestions.

    Anyone want to make a suggestion here? Feel free in the comments below.

    Not to mention Aotearoa/New Zealand Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends.

    When I went to seminary in Seattle, WA, USA in the mid 1980s I took a summer term class at Vancouver School of Theology in the Diocese of New Westminster, Canada. While there I met Dean Peter’s current bishop, +Michael, who was himself dean of Christ Church Cathedral at that time. I still have his small book that he gave me, Rites For A New Age: Understanding the Book of Alternative Services. Vancouver is such a beautiful city.

    That +Michael would be the Mike Ingham with whom I was at theological college in Edinburgh 40 years ago, then. A breath of fresh air in the place back then, if memory serves.

  • Monday in Holy Week

    There should be a special name for Monday in Holy Week – Apprehensive Monday would probably capture it well. There is much to do this week and the clock is ticking now.

    Now, if I can just find the lead which connects the digital camera to the computer, I will be able to post a pic of Louise's wedding that I went to last week.  Check back later.

  • Back Home

    It does feel good to get back home from Yorkshire. Well specifically, it does feel good to get back home from Wakefield.And tomorrow, to Leipzig. Well, metaphorically speaking.

  • Moderatorial Dress

    No lace, alas, but we did get a purply blue shirt, a large official ring and a pectoral cross. Indeed, all the C of S ministers in the party were wearing very prominent clanking pectoral crosses. Bishop all, of course.
