Morning everyone.

Our numbers are back on the rise...

 

[Anhelyna]

Life at present is just a seesaw - up and down all the time - numbers changing from day to day.

 

[Anhelyna]

DRAT !!

Since from 6pm today we are in lockdown , our host Church is closing the complex - so no Liturgies and, as far as we can see, Fr will be unable to Serve and stream Liturgy over Zoom

How long are you fasting?

 

[Anhelyna]

Till Nativity

 

[Michie]

Till Nativity

Wow!

 

[Anhelyna]

It's not as strict as the Great Fast [ Lent ] but we are still off meat , eggs and dairy for the whole period. Fish is allowed at times i.e. Feast of the Apostle Matthew and some weekends and again wine is permitted at weekends

This is the same for Eastern Catholics as well as Orthodox Christians

Double drat...

Believe it or not - but our host Church has said that as we don't exceed 20 they are happy for us to continue using the Hall for our 3 Liturgies each week BUT we have to do all the cleaning since their cleaners won't be in.

But even so I can't go - but at least will be able to be there via Zoom

Well that is good news...

Afternoon everyone.

I'm working from home today....

 

[Anhelyna]

well - if your weather is like ours -- that's no loss.

we are getting some fairly sharp showers , then some sun and then more showers. Very odd . It's not cold so that's a good thing

 

[Michie]

Hello all. Cloudy and mild here.

 

[S.ilvio]

Good morning everyone.

Its a sunny but cold day here. Ill take that. Cleaning day at home. Where is that hoover hiding..?

 

[Anhelyna]

It was sunny first thing here - now the rain has started and it's getting a LOT darker

Nice Liturgy this morning - plenty of folk watching the streaming Liturgy - from the Isle of Lewis to Switzerland and Russia ! Seem to have been a goodly number in Church too

 

[Anhelyna]

did I say something about sun earlier ?

The weather is just like the curate's egg
