Advent Carols at St Andrews Aberdeen

What a superb experience! This is what Aberdeen Cathedral does best of all. Such a shame there were not more people there to be drawn so movingly into this Advent season. The Taverner setting of the Magnificat was awesome. We all had candles to hold and the main lights were extinguished, so very atmospheric. An antidote to 'Black Friday'!

Prayer and Listening Morning at St Mary's

Very pleased with today's 'Prayer Morning' for the future of St Mary's. Thirty members of the congregation turned up. We discussed, in table groups, some of the different aspects of the Church's life, spent time listening to each other and to God in prayer, and wrote down some ideas. Which I now have to collate and feedback!

Here I am, looking quite pleased with it all! (Thank you David Crosley for the picture)
