Whilst working from home, I’m going to be updating the Daily Prayer resources that I make available.
Here are the files you need for saying Daily Prayer at the moment.
Kalendar for March – June 2020
Returning to God – Morning Prayer
Returning to God – Evening Prayer
Some days are particular feast days and need a different book. Here’s Morning Prayer for Feast Days.
(Evening Prayer for Feasts still to come).
Ooh, you’re in some illustrious company – there are worse places to be than beneath John Barrowman!
Congratulations 🙂
He and I are almost the same age, Ryan. It is why we look so alike.
Made more impressive by the fact that the praepostorial look is presumably, unlike Mr Barrowman’s, all-natural 😉
Mostly natural.
Yes, I’d quite like to be under … sorry, got lost in thought there. Well done, Kelvin, and yes, more church people, please. As long as they spell your name right, that is all that maters ….
I don’t think the paper got it wrong at all. St Mary’s is Glasgow’s Cathedral (that is if we ignore the chapel by the Clyde). The C of S place was a cathedral but not any more – it hasn’t had a cathedra for hundreds of years and so is merely a parish church now (nothing wrong with that). The C of E has done away with provosts (they were the head of the cathedrals which also functioned as parish churches). The boss priest in all the
C of E cathedrals is now called the Dean. And so it should be in SEC because the title ‘provost’ is the designation accorded to the head of toon cooncils.
Yes I know we have deans in the SEC dioceses but they could be retitled as archdeacons which is what (I think) is their function.
As to the pink list…how times have changed….. years ago it would have been called the black list! (sorry!)
Times have indeed changed, Ross. Something which is to be celebrated.
I’ve no desire to be a Dean. Deans in Scotland do something quite different to what I do, and Provost described me nicely. The title of Dean is also used in secular life now too, in education, as is the term Rector.
There are four cathedrals in Glasgow. St Mungo’s, St Luke’s, St Andrew’s and St Mary’s, each no doubt dearly loved by their people.
Archdeacon is a great title tho, suggesting to the layperson that it involves deacons raising one eyebrow and making drily witty comments.
I’d’a thunk you might have been a ‘national treasure’ by now…maybe next year. 🙂
I’m a National Treasure round about this blog. That’ll do for now.
I seem to recall that at Coates Hall back in the very early 1970s the student charged with providing services at the Mission Church in Dean Village was known [tongue very firmly in cheek] as the Archdeacon of the Water of Leith. A resounding title but no gaiters came with it.

Exciting news this morning – we have a date for the first same-sex marriages in Scotland. The date is within this year – just. The first day on which most couples will be able to get married will be 31 December 2014, the day known in Scotland as Hogmanay. There’s going to be some parties…
