  • Prayers at a time of tragedy

    As I write this I’m hearing and seeing the news of the tragedy in George Square involving a bin lorry, unfold on twitter and news services. The accident is just about a 100 yards away from the Diocesan Office, an area I know well.

    My thoughts and prayers are there and it is hard not to think that I’ll know someone who was in the square at the time it happened this afternoon.

    Eternal God
    at this time of bewildering tragedy in the city
    help us to pray for those involved.
    For those in hospital, for those who have died,
    for those who rescue, for those who comfort,
    for medical staff and for witnesses passing,
    for all who wonder why.

    Lord in your mercy.
    Hear our prayer.

    Some of these ring a bell, but am deeply curious as to what the the Scottish Episcopal Tartan is! Creation of the (divinely-inspired?) knitting-group? 🙂

    Do you teach that last topic personally Padre, or have you farmed that out to others more expert?

    I may take exception to the idea that anyone is more expert.

    All I know about strip-tease for beginners is that blokes need to remember to take their socks off as the first item. Really.

    The only time that I recall my Roberto, of blessed memory, taking off his socks, was when bathing or swimming!
