Two baptisms this morning on the Sunday before Lent begins. Lucy, a nine-year-old, high as a kite on adrenaline and her granny, Jean. Done in true St Auggie's style with lots of laughter, fun and celebration. There's something very special about Adult Baptism, and we've had two already this year.
Caught a bit of Richard Holloway's programme on Radio Scotland before the 9am service today, where he was interviewing an MSP and member of Holy Trinity Dunoon. (Same parish as she of Blethers fame) I was quite tickled when he commented that he sailed to the sister parish in Rothesay more these days, and, perhaps, took a wee swipe at "happy clappy charismatics" (who could he mean), but did I actually hear Richard Holloway correctly? Did the man say something along the lines of... The Scottish Episcopal Church is lacking leadership at the moment?
