  • 10 Things to Remember about Corpus Christi

    corpuschristi - new

    1. It is on Thursday 19 June 2014 this year.
    2. It is always on a Thursday.
    3. It is one of the most extravagent and lovely religious festivals that human beings have devised.
    4. Thomas Aquinas is said to have invented it to bring the focus back to Jesus Christ in churches which were rather keen on his mother.
    5. It is about gazing in wonder – and we don’t do that nearly enough.
    6. Our Lord himself comes and wanders amongst his people – just like in real life!
    7. Abraham (as Bishop Kevin was always wont to say) would have understood this feast
    8. We scatter flower petals hither and yon to make a suitable pathway for God to come amongst us
    9. It smells. Lovely.
    10. The service takes place at 7.30 pm in St Mary’s on Thursday evening – please bring flower petals to the sacristy by 7 pm if you can

    And this is all in Maryhill? There will be great wailing and gnashing of teeth in Newton Mearns and Giffnock when the news gets out..

      Quail here too. Quail eggs from Waitrose though, not yet Lidl.

    West Enders eat moose. South Siders eat Wholefoods. I know where I’d rather be.

      I’m not at all sure that any shop selling a few nuts and bits and bobs of fresh veg on either side of the river can be as impressive as Moose in Maryhill.

    Does the Maryhill Lidl also offer Canadian Lobster? Not that I am bragging but the needy of the Rubarb Triangle need some joy in their lives and our Lidl is meeting this need

    Yes, lobster is on offer in Maryhill.

    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.

    Fiona asked me some good questions on my previous post about Morning Prayer. She asked me about how to use the material that I’d provided. Note firstly, by the way that I’ve already updated the pdf file with version 2 as I had made some mistakes in the earlier one. I’d left too many antiphons…

    Now, the question is this: if you were accused in court of doing some nefarious deed, would you want to see me on the jury bench? Well, that is not quite the question. The question is really whether or not you think that clergy should have an automatic right to be exempt from jury service…

    Don’t miss Layclerk’s story about what happened to him on the way to a choir party over the weekend. An excellent account of what happens when the West End meets Maryhill Road. Layclerk lives in what I think is called the Outer West End of the city. Once you’ve read his tale, head on over…
