The Annunciation transferred

Monday 26th March 2012

"Good: here comes my hay"

Molly had to wait for exercise until after we had celebrated Holy Communion for Lady Day, the celebration of the Annunciation (announcing to Mary the birth of Jesus) which should be on 25th March, nine months before Christmas, but which was displaced by Sunday and so postponed till today. 
     The early frost gave way to a very warm middle of the day and a hot afternoon.  I had a meeting in Morpeth followed by a confirmation class which I just reached in time on my return to the benefice.
     As ever, there is  a lot of organisation behind every event and the pace of deskwork is hotting up as we move towards Easter.
