Sounds fairly Anglo-Catholic to me. What about Benediction or Marian devotions?

You know, I have to concur with Think here. YOU started this wretched thread two years ago, and here you give us a blow-by-blow account of just what you do. Short of when you scratch your bum, I don't think you've left any detail undescribed. And your obsession with lists of times of services makes you the closest thing to an Ecclesiastical Bradshaw's that I have yet encountered.

So I was bewildered when you resurrected this thread to tell us all the same stuff again as if you had had no hand in the origins of this thread.

Odd. Very, very, very odd.

Not at my current parish, at least not yet (other parishes in my jurisdiction do those things, though). We're a mix of A-Cs, converts from evangelical & reformed churches, and old-style Morning Prayer Episcopalians, so a balance of sorts needs to be struck to prevent the Romaphobic from fleeing in terror. In a few years, we'll probably be at the point that we can have Solemn Evensong with Benediction on Sundays and recite the Angelus after Mass, but right now it might be one straw too many.

Triple Tiara - please be careful to avoid personal attacks here. (I sincerely hope that posting in Eccles is never like scratching ones bum, but there we go!)

Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world’s grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.
