Greetings, all you good people in lockdown. How are you faring? We’re all in this together, huh, but in our own homes, so there’s not much fellowship to be had, huh. Well, as the St Francis Web-guy, and in talking with Rev Joan, I thought I’d put up a few things to maintain some morale in these uncertain times. So, check out some of the the things below. You’ll find something there for you – plenty of inspiration, hopefully, and including some fun stuff and some interesting stuff.

Appreciating Mary, Mother of Jesus
Today we give thanks for the part Mary played in the story of God, bringing new life and redemption into this world, through Jesus, God, and Mary’s son.
I also wish to probe what might have been going on in that Nazareth home as Jesus and his siblings grew up there.
Mary, the mother of Jesus, has had a place of honour in the church from the beginning.
Geniuses 1
Here begins a short series on geniuses. Prompted by the fact that, in my subjective and opinionated opinion, there have only been four true geniuses, plus a motley tag-team.
[Can you think who they are? Who would you include?]
Against all Odds
For every medal celebrated there are dozens who didn’t make the podium.
If the medallists were winners, were the others losers?
What is winning? It’s by no means standard, even at the Olympics: some win by being first across the line or to the end of the pool. For other sports, you need to hammer the other guy, or bullseye the arrow, or dance your horse the best, or be the best kickflipper, or maximise air time and minimise horizontal travel (as in the trampoline)!
Et cetera.
Golds come in all sorts of packages.
