This photo doesn’t truly capture the drizzly, foggy mess that is happening outside at the moment. It isn’t particularly cold which accounts for the prediction of bad storms this evening. You know, the whole warm air meets cold air and causes chaos scenario. Sigh.
I follow a blog called Tracing Rainbows and the author, Angela, is a truly nice person with interesting posts. She has a husband who is a pastor in the UK. Today, while enjoying my cuppa I was scrolling through my blog list and, as I do everyday, I clicked on Angela’s blog and saw that she has posted a link to her husbands church service for today. She does this often but I have never visited the site but today, I was drawn to do so.
As I opened the link I was met by Bob, Angela’s husband, and I immediately felt at home. Such a warm, welcoming gentleman and such a good message. Actually, it was just what I needed to hear on this day, isn’t it strange how that happens? No, not strange, just divine intervention. So, thank you Pastor Bob for such a wonderful sermon. I enjoyed the music included and the children singing were adorable — and I loved their leaping! I will be back for sure.
Today’s menu includes beef stew. I will try to take photos but there isn’t much interesting about beef stew, is there? Yes, my husband doesn’t think so either but this icky day seems to just scream for some comfort food.
The rest of the day will be reading, visiting my own church later this morning, and more laundry. There is always laundry, isn’t there? I am going to make a stab at getting back to my cross stitch project but somehow my motivation for that has gone AWOL. I know that if I could just get started I wouldn’t be able to put it down but it is the getting started part that I am stuck on.
So, on to the next load of laundry and maybe a second cup!

I met Angela once when I was in Dorset and she is truly lovely!
I have no doubt! I would like to hear you preach as well. I have been to Dorset once, Swanage to be exact.
Beef Stew actually sounds wonderful on a chilly wet January day.
Thank you so much for your kind words. In these strange times, it is wonderful to realise that people around the globe are sharing in worship with us.
GM— u5 was good but shot my husbands blood sugar up
This afternoon our church is having a special live stream. I went to noon Mass but the livestream is going to be an extra-special treat with the Bishop visiting the church. I certainly don't like COVID times but the live streaming allows me to be part of a lot more than usual. Beef stew sounds wonderful on a chilly drab day.
Hi, Angela! It was lovely and I will be visiting again.
Holly, I agree that some of the methods to deal with covid have been a blessing. Our church allows you to rewatch the video as well which is a nice feature. I have to say is that going to church is the one thing I miss the most about this whole mess.
