The Other End Of The Road

The road that is that links EK to Paisley.

Last night I made the journey for the double Patronal festival of Holy Trinity and St Barnabas (as the Rector himself pointed out not exactly liturgically correct, but it happened anyway).

The weather has been somewhat balmy of late and for most members of a congregation going to church for the cool air inside is somewhat of a bonus. For us clergy however it is a different story.  Why are cassocks woollen and I know that the brocade on copes is wonderful, but surely someone somewhere could invent a summer version so we didn’t have to walk around in our own personal saunas.

The service itself was wonderful, the choir sung well and the Dean managed to demonstrate in his sermon how St Barnabas and the Holy Trinity were near neighbours.

The highlight – Godly Matron.
