It's been an idea that's been floating around for a while now, but we took the plunge today and started a Daily Prayer Service in St Auggie's. It is our intention to have a wee 10-15 minute service at 12.30pm each day, Mon-Fri from now onwards. Maybe folk on their lunch hour will pop in, maybe not. Maybe just lost souls, but someone from the congregation will be there for them at 12.30. Three of us turned up today, so that was good enough for me!
Tonight it was off to the URC Church to preach to an ecumenical congregation of about 30. We share services during Holy Week, and as the years go on, the liturgies of the Episcopal Church have become very much part of the package. Holy Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday we are firmly based in the other churches with a Word-based service. I get quite emotional in Holy Week when I preach. Not that you would have known it tonight!

Now there's a commitment worth making, Father K.
I may not be able to join you in person, but I WILL aim to remember and maybe join you all in the spirit when I can.
This'll be a most remarkable Holy Week Legacy. And a demanding undertaking.
All very best wishes, x
