Re: [StAugustinesParish] Back to Church Sunday

Kaete
It was  lovely to see you.
We should talk about God/not God.
Often when people say those things they mean they have outgrown anthropomorphising God and outgrown God as object of discussion (as opposed to subject).
'I am who I am' is God's response to all that.
A bit complex but a good basis for discussion if you have the energy some time.
Rachel Swan (office helper) is itching to work on the website. Are you OK with that?
Cheers
Stephen

Subject: [StAugustinesParish] Back to Church Sunday

 

Hi Stephen, Hi all,

It was good to be at the ‘
Back to Church Sunday,’ yesterday, and to see, and be with some former friends. One of these, being Mary Bullock, who I hadn’t seen for several years, but who gave me a hug, and asked me, and as I did do, to sit next to her.

The problem, with my, and my mother’s, continuing involvement, as active St A’s parishioners is, as we see it, that neither of us no longer, a) believe in the tenet that there is a god, or gods, and, b) no longer believe that worshiping such a non-existant God, or gods is, time wise, all that worthwhile. Both of us miss, very majorly I hasten to add, being with all those that we used to see, and be with, over the years, we attended the services at St A.  We very much miss these people, most dearly, and we wish them our love..

Kind wishes,,

Kaete

Hi  Stephen,

Yes, I could get to the 10am service this coming Sunday.  

Going to Sydney this coming Saturday in order to join my daughter in  some bike riding (we’re riding in the event described below, and therefore  need to start getting a bit of training in!!) but, providing all goes to plan,  should be back in Newc the same night.

Agree with you about driving the  website from the office. To me, and for at least two reasons that I can think  of, doing so would make very good sense.

Kind  wishes,

Kaete

Thanks for this.
I  would really appreciate a conversation some time.
I think we need to  drive the website from the Office to ensure its currency.
Are you coming  to Back to Church Sunday (10am this Sunday)?
Cheers & missing  you!
Stephen
