Subject: RE: Sitting At The Kitchen Table
Thank you for the song Jerry,music is very uplifting,I loved your story about the 40's,You can imagine in my work( beauty therapist) I listen to all the ladies tales of woe, most of our clients are lovely but there are a few who can be a challenge, it is very difficalt not to tell them to count their blessings sometimes.However today has been a good one as my first client was our new vicars wife. They have been in the parish for about a year and are having a particularly tough time with a few of the older ladies who dont like change. They do not like any new hymns, insist that he should wear the traditional robes and stick to the English prayer book. The last parish they had was in London where the congregation was very diverse and had people of all colours and creeds.Here they have even had threatening letters! they are a lovely couple and I do hope they weather the storm. They have attracted a lot of young people with children to attend the church so I do hope they stay.
