As of this past Monday I’m fully vaccinated. And I just had a COVID test in preparation for a Confirmation service this Sunday. Alleluia!
It not quite normal, but we’re moving faster in the right direction. Thanks be to God.
Christmas Eve stew is in the crockpot, the chores are done, and now listening to the story of Salvation in song and readings from Kings College Cambridge. Christmas is about to begin! #9LC
Each week you have three ways to enjoy Compline By Candlelight, in person as it happens, via podcast & video. Choose the 1st option tonight, and come to St Paul’s Chapel, and you’ll hear a holiday classic, Benjamin Britten’s “Ceremony of Carols.”#Compline https://t.co/C3ryO9ahp4
