Free Opera Video from The Metropolitan Opera

3/22/2020

 
Picture
From Janice Fischer: The Metropolitan Opera is offering a free opera video every night.  It's a great way to learn about opera if you don't know much about it. Subtitles are available which makes it easy to understand.  For those who like opera it's wonderful!  Check out metopera.com for details.  "I streamed it over Roku on the Metropolitan Opera channel.  It's a good time to try something different."

Lamentation Practice For A Time of Crisis

Picture
From BB Vaughn: I love information from Richard Rohr, and I would like to share a practice: Lamentation for a Time of Crisis.  From this practice I am learning how necessary lamenting is and how freeing it can be. Today on a conference call, several of us talked through this pattern, and I hope to share with others!

 From Linda Aargard: I am really enjoying the book “Lost in Wonder” by Esther De Waal. The thing is perfect and the words beautiful. It is a good book to read for Lent, it is a perfect book to read while staying at home, but getting outside. Hope you also like it.

Resources For Worship and Devotion

3/19/2020

 

https://prayer.forwardmovement.org/

 This is a classic that has daily readings and meditations.  It mirrors their publication.
 

 https://cathedral.org/
 The National Cathedral has good content for daily meditations and streaming services of worship on a regular basis
 

https://www.bcponline.org/
 If you do not have a hard copy of a Book of Common Prayer, this is the online version.  It is a great resource for liturgies, prayers, and daily services.
 

 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-episcopal-church-in-garrett-county/id1191115260
 Cindy Kirchner likes this for a podcast stream of Morning Prayer 
 
 
https://www.harvesthousepublishers.com/
 Harry Lankenau likes Boyd Bailey’s devotions.  Look under the blog section for a catalog.
 

 https://cac.org/category/daily-meditations/
 Janice and I love theologian Richard Rohr’s meditations.  You can sign up to get one sent to you daily.  He is developing new content every day.
 
 
https://www.cathedralatl.org/
 I also like the content being posted through St. Philip’s Cathedral in Atlanta.  Their Dean, Sam Candler, is a thoughtful and wise colleague and friend.

WELCOME
This is the table, not of the Church but of Jesus Christ. It is made ready for those who love God and who want to love God more.
So come, you who have much faith and you who have little, You who have been here often and you who have not been for a long time or ever before.
​You who have tried to follow and all of us who have failed. These are the gifts of God for the People of God.
Adapted from The Iona Community, Iona Abbey Worship Book, (Glasgow, UK: Wild Goose Publications, 2001), 53.
