Evensong
Had a nice lunch. At evensong we sang Batten and Purcell O Lord my God. Watched Father Brown, Antiques road show. The Village continues to be pretty bleak!
Interesting story from Canon Moger yesterday about a faithful churchwarden who had been a builder and was moved to tears by a simple service where he could light candles, burn incense and move stones. He said he had found God. Some of is are doers and need to do something like sprinkle holy water on a coffin (even at a crematorium!), soil on the coffin, lay a flower or light a candle. Liturgy can be too static.
Another story from yesterday wedding party wanted Harry Potter theme as the rings were delivered by an owl!
