All Souls

I was meditating on the Feast of All Souls, and sought to remember whether I hasd preached on this feast. So I searched my trusty outboard memory when sure enough, in the year 2022, Fr George Westhaver invited me to preach at Pusey House. I brought the day and the readings in conjunction with one of my favourite poems, and the result made for a good sermon, I think — worth offering to you, anyway. (Click below for the PDF.)

Two, Good

Ran my miles this morning at a good, though not noteworthy, pace. Coffee, hot breakfast, then rehearsal for tomorrow’s All Saint’s Sunday service. Now, more odds and ends that had been suspended for a bit, but an otherwise relaxing day.

Return To Two

Good run this morning in chilly weather. Not limber, but adequate leg liveliness and breathing. Cup of coffee, some grapes, a shower, on my way to Morning Prayer then check phone messages and a breakfast date with Margaret at R&R. Much, much to do.
