    I do like ‘try to wind everyone as far up the candlestick of joy as I dare’. St Mary’s does have natural advantages, which let it succeed as it does. However, I really do not think other churchs need to make so much of their natural disadvantages…

    …And don’t forget Evensong, which for me (as you’d expect) was even more glorious. I even felt moved to blog about it in the first of a ‘Guilty Pleasures’ series! http://mimanifesto.wordpress.com/2013/03/11/guilty-pleasures-1/

    It was particularly wonderful for the Boston choir to be singing Frikki’s great setting of Newman’s poem/hymn ‘Lead Kindly Light’

    A fabulous end to a remarkable day in the Cathedral. Truly uplifting.

    Sounds as if everybody had great time. On occasions, such as this, I wish you could record the whole service, as you do with the Sermon, for people to watch on line.

    Our congregation recently decided to introduce an Evensong service once a month so I’m looking forward to that.

  • Glasgow & Galloway and the Anglican Covenant

    People keep asking me about how this diocese dealt with the Anglican Covenant and whether or not we passed it. Well, we were very faithful to the current processes of the church and engaged in quite a thorough consultation session at the diocesan synod on Saturday. I had quite a lot of input into how…

  • On the STV couch

    I was on STV’s Scotland Tonight this evening being interviewed by John Mackay. It was an enjoyable interview and gave me the chance to say that Christianity is about compassion and love, something that is sometimes in danger of being drowned out by the loud shrill antigay voices of the usual suspects. Today it was…

    This year’s Bishop’s Lent Appeal was launched on Saturday at the Diocesan Synod. This is the video that I produced featuring Bishop Gregor and Marion Chatterley to enable synod members to learn about the appeal.
