Weekend greetings from Emmanuel Road and the new podcast for this week of remembrance – 8th November 2020
Greetings to you all once again. I very much enjoyed seeing so many regulars and newcomers at this morning’s Service of Mindful Meditation which included the Remembrance Sunday two minute silence. It was also good to see a few others at the later Time of Conversation.
Naturally, I trust that all is as well as can be expected with you especially as we enter into another period of lockdown. As always, please be in touch by replying to this email if you would like to speak with me during the week and we can arrange a suitable time to talk properly either by telephone, Zoom or by taking a socially distanced walk somewhere in and around town.
My Remembrance Sunday/Armistice Day connected address fro you this week is called, “This monument is for the unknown good in our enemies” and it can be found on my blog by clicking the following link:

If, on reading this, you decide you would like also to join us on Sunday morning and do not have the necessary Zoom link for the morning mindful meditation and time of conversation following then please contact our Church Secretary, Brendan Boyle, via the contact page of our website. Just look through the dropdown tabs to find “Secretary”:
Please log in between 9.45 and 10am. The meditation starts at 10am sharp, and finishes about 10.50. There will then be a short break to allow you to stretch your legs, compose your thoughts, or put the kettle on. The ‘Time for Conversation’ will start about 11am, and if you aren’t taking part in the meditation, feel free to sign in during the break for the conversation. To get the most from the meditation, you will find it helpful to either print out the order of service, or display it in a second window. Here is the link:

You might also wish to have a small candle or tea-light to hand to light at a certain point during the meditation.
If you can’t come to the live Zoom meditation, at the following link, you can download an mp3 of the service I made for you back at the beginning of lockdown. For your delectation I’ll be recording a new, higher fidelity one in the very near future:
