Better sit down. Your legs may not hold you up: Stacey gave the church children the rest of the Communion bread and juice to enjoy! As I am not of a denomination that requires the full consumption of the consecrated elements, I confess I've done that also - much to the chagrin of older parishioners. I'm not going to eat it and bread isn't good for the birds! And I find it sacriligious to just dump it down the drain and throw it away! Good for you, Stacey!

ReplyDeleteThank you for your loving comment too. I feel loved here in Rev Gals - and thank God for this supporting network of on-line friends. I've felt very carried by prayers and also appreciated too.
I go home from Tallinn tomorrow - desperate to see my family (I've been here for 'too long - over two weeks!) but also worrying how things will be in our local church. I know that God is good and need to focus on that - but it's not that easy. I wish it were.
