last Sunday’s free museum day didn’t exactly work as planned, eight of us met in 2nd Cup on McGill College, and five of us were my family! Ah well, we tried something different. Things have been busy for me with a visit to Oshawa and a day for clergy & lay leaders in Loblaws LaSalle! Busy & good though.


Sally sent me this in response to the flash mob guerilla worship video I forwarded,


"Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God:
But only he who sees, takes off his shoes,
The rest sit round it, and pluck blackberries,
And daub their natural faces unaware
More and more, from the first similitude."

Elizabeth Barrett Browning
from Aurora Leigh, Seventh Book

sunday june 7
being part of the Diocese of Montreal is a funny thing, but sometimes it has it's perks...such as
11am Diocesan Brunch outside the Cathedral, it's free, there will be veggie burgers as well as beef, and we're all invited!
1pm Diocesan Eucharist: Guest Speaker: Bishop Mark MacDonald. Theme: “Hear What the Spirit is Saying to the Church.”
Bishop Barry is asking us to come together as a Diocesan family. Mark is National Indigenous Bishop and is well worth meeting! (That's his photo at the top)




later that same day… and as if that were not enough, we will get together in the Undercroft to do something we haven’t done for quite a while, share the Lord’s Supper together, plus soup & bread, live music, friends, conversation around “where do you see God’s Spirit at work?” 5.00 pm



wednesday june 10

musicians & singers want to get something special going for june 14 so we’ll get together to rehearse at Sue & Nick’s 7.30 pm
