In the last few days there have been terrorist attacks in Maiduguri, Ankara, Istanbul, Brussels.
People from all around the world and all traditions stand in solidarity with those places under attack.
Eternal God
hear the cries of your people
as we stand in solidarity
with those under attack.
Protect the innocent,
comfort the needy,
confound the wicked.
Give strength to the rescuers,
determination to peacemakers,
courage to law-enforcers,
strength to the weary.
Amen.

I choose not to crow about lobster for it comes from the sea and consequently should not be eaten.
The kashrut/OT problem is the lack of fins and scales, not the sea per se.

Tomorrow (Saturday) morning I’m doing a guided tour of St Mary’s followed by a cup of tea and a blether about the place. It is free and is open to anyone – folk who have been around a while and folk trying out the congregation and wanting to hear a bit more about it. It…
