Worth
Noting
Brace yourself for the real experience of going to a rural parish service on Easter Sunday. 'As you leave, you shake hands with the vicar in the porch. "Lovely service – thank you so much!" You wish you were being sincere.'
Ysenda Maxtone Graham writes in The Spectator (London).
Cathedral of St Paul, Wellington podcasts:
'We are delighted to be able to offer a selection of our services as podcasts. These will feature a selection of both our regular services (the heartbeat of the cathedral) and our larger services, including those held as part of the 2012 cathedral choir festival, Advent and Christmas carol services and other major occasions in the church year.'
Episcopal Schools go global: 'one effect of the recession is renewed resolve to own the tradition of Episcopal education. That includes sharing all the tradition has to offer, from liturgical worship to communal values, and hoping some of its wisdom rubs off.' G. Jeffrey MacDonald writes for The Living Church (Milwaukee).
