The Newcastle trip sounds interesting Mr Curly. Is it part of a larger competition? We're not participating in trick or treat, as someone forgot to buy the treats. In any event, it's a US tradition, not local, is my defence. Should anyone call, they'll have to take an IOU.
I'm fortunate in being inside a security block. Residents who let in hawkers, canvassers and the like to use an old fashioned term, are not well regarded by others here. Once inside they are in and who knows what mischief they might do? I refused to let some one in the other day who used the word Bible at least ten times in a few sentences over security intercom.. He wasn't happy. I can guess from the tone just where he came from and it wasn't the usual suspects. It was daytime and I guess he was trying numbers till he found someone home.
Like GeeD I have no sweets. Never buy them and rarely have even sweet biscuits in the house. I much prefer savoury. There are children who live here but they are mostly toddlers.

Was talking with a hospital chaplain on my last intensive, and she asked me if I knew anyone who could make bookmarks for her. She said she often leaves one with patients who need hope, encouragement or peace, but it can be hard to find bookmarks with appropriate scriptures on them. Luckily I knew just the craft group for this and was able to pass the request on.
Never thought about appropriate scriptures for bedside use being hard to source before now - I had assumed that with everything you can get in bulk and on-line all resources would be on tap. Apparently not: or else she's looking in the wrong places. ![[Confused]](confused.gif)

Mr Curly, you remind me of the days when I had a class of 11-year-olds for music, so we learned the instruments of the orchestra or band, whatever we could find. Small girl brought along her brother's tuba and managed to get two notes out of it.
Those were the days.
Wellington Airport is doing a whole lot of refurbishing, so I wrote to the paper (as I frequently do) with a copy to the airport, suggesting that they ought to have a chapel/quiet room/prayer room for stressed travellers; quoted Auckland, Perth, Vancouver and Heathrow. And said how about getting a chaplain while you're about it. Had a nice reply from the airport, who said they were actually considering a quiet room in their planning.
So we'll see what comes out of it.

Actually. My secret plan is do spiritual care at the Bluesfest and Splendour in the Grass etc music festivals
![[Biased]](wink.gif) ![[Yipee]](graemlins/spin.gif) .
Really though, Despite it being Foaming Draft when he was a chaplain at (what was it he called the place?) who first suggested I do chaplaincy, and though I did my placement at a hospital, I never intended to practice as a hospital chaplain.
However, in some ways it it is the easy path into chaplaincy. At my practice hospital I got to know the Nurse Practitioner - Psychogeriatric services, and when I saw her (by chance, or was it?) after completing my certificate she was very keen for me to start at the hospital in my little town as they have a number of long term (which I take to mean weeks rather than the 3 day average stay) patients. She was the one who arranged for me to see Wizardest's hospital's Nursing administrator. It also helped that this Nursing Administrator had been a midwife and knows and respects the midwife who is part of my ten person house-church.
When I picked up my badge I was told that the hospital auxiliary and the Lilac Ladies (sic) had heard I was to start, and they are keen to meet me. I suspect they heard this through a couple of people I play social tennis with, one of whom is the Presby minister, and the other whose wife goes to her church's bible studies and prayer meetings. (I doubt it would be the atheist or the New Ager).
So I will also be at the Lilac Ladies monthly meeting for a "grilling" ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) on Monday.

I'm really sporadic about it. As in, I might read it for a couple of weeks, and then wander off and forget about All Saints for months and months.

Yay, orfeo. Love the identity!
Gah, gah, and thrice gah. I'm sitting here reading the Diocesan rag, which I picked up after last night's most excellent All Soul's Day (Eve) Requiem Mass. Those of you who wish to follow along may like to download it from the link on the Diocesan home page and turn to page 9.
One of our parishes will be hosting a 'Prophecy Conference' offering 'training to live like the early church'. I don't think that they mean the stuff about holding things in common. It disturbs me that a priest 'with particular gifts of discernment and prophecy... ...is currently serving the Lord as prophet and spiritual mentor to the clergy and leadership of the diocese.'
Had the Jim Wallace Hell thread not already been closed for thread necromancy, I might have posted there and been guilty of the same. I even contemplated turning this into my first Hell OP. but I just want a quick geography-specific rant, and I don't think I can quite do justice to Hell. But in that thread, I did observe that strange things happen when evangelicalism is freed from the confines of the Sydney diocesan position on all things charismatic.
There is so, so much about the article that I find disturbing. I really am clinging onto Anglicanism by the skin of my teeth.
Apart from that, I'm fine. Despite not posting here recently, I have been reading, and praying too when occasion arises.

Oh Vulpior, there are no words. I'm surprised that +Robinson is into that scene - I know he gets on with most (relatively) orthodox Anglicans, but this seems far beyond that.
Mind you, in the Boom State we've got a person on the Diocesan staff who goes to a large, Zionist, fundamentalist, anti-gay establishment in the evenings to get spirit-filled or some such nonsense.

Ooh goody. I might just have to go along to be a fly on the wall. I have lost track of how many self appointed Prophets and Apostles I've come across in evo churches. My personal opinion is that we are all called to be both (but without the capital letters). But I do love the excuse for a bit of flag waving, and I'm not getting much of that up at the Big House. I'm sure there will be lots of exuberant Christian expression encouraged, and I am dying to bust out a few moves. Just Because.
BL. If we have to have processions in the church, then some of us should be allowed to carry banners instead of candles.

Vulpior,
Low church evangelicalism is one thing, but this stuff is so far beyond the pale! A few pages dowm in the same issue is the report of evangelical mission in Uganda, the report speeking of "full-on deliverance ministry". I grew up in that sort of madness.
Please don't leave, though. Our Chruch needs as many sane and balanced people we can get, to balance out the nutters.

Yes, I realise. I'm kind of making a similar point to the one I made here on the Jim Wallace Hell thread. There's all sorts of stuff going on in C&G that would make Sydney Anglicans roll their eyes.
Me, I'm disturbed.
Happy moving, JtC.

Yeah, we were all emailed over the last few days. *sigh* It's been in formal conversation for the last two or three years, and many think it should have happened 30 years ago. The school, unlike Christ's and Kings, was built on the sheep's back (no jokes, Australians) and the sheep's back ain't that lucrative any more.
To me though it's very sad.

Grrrr. No for all the saints... for me this morning. Up early, did all the right things except to have my coffee. Looked at clock and saw I had plenty of time. So I made the coffee, frothed the milk and then tipped the jug over. No idea how.
I did a very quick clean up, enough to stop it running onto the floor and recognised I would have to do a major clean on my return. Grabbed bag and out the door.
I was waiting to cross main road, still about 100 metres from bus stop, when bus sailed past on the green light. Early. well and truly early. Next one is far too late unless it too is early.
So I went into McDs and bought a mug of coffee which was OK. Not bad, but OK. I decided I would get other bus around the corner and go to St Paul's in next suburb which is a similar flavour to St Docs etc. Checked timetable. Previous bus had gone 5 minutes earlier and the next was a very long time away. So infrequently are they timetabled on a Sunday that I wonder if it's worth the effort. St John's which is sort of within walking distance is now amalgamated with another local parish, much of it fairly typically Sydney. The only service there I would consider is the 8:00 am and we were well past that.
So now a big cleanup awaits me.

Had an unsolicited quote last week to water blast our pebblecrete driveway for $345.00. Just a tad too dear methinks. Got hold of a cheaper end of market water blaster at a garage sale yesterday for $15.00. Have cleaned a quarter of the driveway and it looks like new. If the appliance only last this once it was worth it!!
We stayed home this morning from church had a leisurely brekky and some shopping. The preacher was one of our retired folk who spat the dummy a couple of months ago when we had a rather heated discussion on the church's alcohol policy.(He was very anti) He and his wife have since transferred their membership to another UC in the area so not sure why he wanted to be there today so stayed away. No doubt we will be filled in later!!

All Saints' celebrated today at 9am with flourish and style: we had people from Waverley, Manly and the Central Coast join with us.
I had crafted the service to change in tone from the burst of praise for All Saints' to slowly but suredly more subdued setting (not sombre or the like) towards the end of the servce and the Commemoration of the Faithful Departed. The names of the departed had been laid on the altar after being caried in procession and after the post-communion prayer the names were read out from the altar (after a Litany linking the 'saints' (large and small) from Scripture and history (Melannesian Brotherhood martyes, Martin Luther King, Jospehine Baker, etc) before those of comunity members and their family.
Part of the Litany:
For Esther and Deborah, saviours of their nation,
and for all who dare to act courageously at God’s call:
for Hannah and Ruth, and all who through love and devotion
witness to the faithfulness of God:
for Isaiah, John the Baptist and all the prophets,
and all who speak the truth without counting the cost: R
Even if I say so myself the progression of the service captured both elements of Saints and Souls - and there was not a pumpkin in sight! .

My reaction was the same as Evangeline's (just a different swear word).
So sad. Not that married people fall out of love, but that they don't think it's worth waiting for the tide to come back in again on the same beach.
