After Communion

May 8, 2011 by Cams

Read at Sunday service, 8 May 2011

By Christina Georgina Rossetti  (1830–1894)

Why should I call Thee Lord, Who art my God?
Why should I call Thee Friend, Who art my Love?
Or King, Who art my very Spouse above?
Or call Thy Sceptre on my heart Thy rod?
Lo, now Thy banner over me is love,
All heaven flies open to me at Thy nod:
For Thou hast lit Thy flame in me a clod,
Made me a nest for dwelling of Thy Dove.
What wilt Thou call me in our home above,
Who now hast called me friend? how will it be
When Thou for good wine settest forth the best?
Now Thou dost bid me come and sup with Thee,
Now Thou dost make me lean upon Thy breast:
How will it be with me in time of love?

Adam, where are you?

March 13, 2011 by Cams

Read out at the Sunday service in Kilmory and Lamlash, 13 March 2011

Adam, where are you?

No, I don’t take any responsibility,
you see Lord, I didn’t actually
pick the apple, so I’m completely blameless.
No, Eve gave it to me
and obviously I didn’t want to upset her;
girls like her are a bit few and far between.

Anyway, she was only
responding to an invitation.
Yes, I know you said we weren’t to
but it’s not a matter of punishing us-
It was obviously the serpent’s fault
and when you’ve had time to mull it over
I’m sure you’ll acknowledge
that you were the one
who put it in the garden
in the first place!

The Garden

March 13, 2011 by Cams

Read out at the Sunday service in Kilmory and Lamlash, 13 March 2011

The Garden

Behind our memory
is the place we cannot remember
where we took form
and were at one
with that beyond ourselves.

Eden is a barren desert now.
Its sapling apple trees
are planted out into the world
to yield fruit after their kind,
as God intended it.

This Fall, this separation this state we call sin
is not for lamentation and despair
nor for self-accusation.
God has not rejected us.
Does a mother reject the child she bears
when it leaves her body?

This world in which we live enclosed
will presently expel us
into a state that we cannot imagine
from earth’s womb.

Yet do not be afraid
so Easter teaches us
compassionately.

The Garden is for hope and trust
whether it be Eden
or Gethsemane.

Count your Blessings 2011

March 6, 2011 by Cams

Make Lent Meaningful

Lent is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and give thanks for even our smallest blessings, and to turn our thoughts to those in need around the world. Count your Blessings is a creative way to pray for, and give to, the work of Christian Aid – reflecting on the good things in our lives and thinking of those for whom life is very different.

From Ash Wednesday to Easter, follow these simple daily actions and reflections for a meaningful Lent.

Kilmory Church

I had a lovely afternoon in Kilmory yesterday with Freya and Hamish and got some nice shots. It’s such a beautiful church and has a lovely atmosphere inside. Freya wants to go to the service next Sunday so I’ll try and get up a bit earlier and do a double dunter — service in Kilmory at 10:00 and then in Lamlash at 11:30.

Next thing to do will be to get some historical information about each of the churches and put it on the site. We’re getting there!
