More than ever I feel the need of having Thee close to me.
“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” I will all the more gladly boast of my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

The sign of peas?
Let us offer each other the sign of peas.....see HERE
I would much rather offer the sign of justice to my fellow pew-huggers. I generally bring a large kipper with me and slap them lightly on each cheek. Of course you should not try this in Birkenhead or you may get mugged for the kipper.
No wonder the Bishop brought in the ICKSP in New Brighton to form an EF-only parish. That must be the only church in the Wirral where one can attend a kipper-free service.
Bruvver Card., I was gonna tell you about my Church. We do the Slap of Peace. But not like Jadis. We just use our hand and Slap as hard as we want to. It's good for a lot of pent up stuff in case we wasn't bein' attentive enuff and ovver stuff. We don't have to kiss an make up or nuffin'. When Mass is ended de Priest Slaps everyone and Says Go in Peace. He Slaps some parishioners harder than qvver ones.
In an episode of NCIS, Special Agent Gibbs returns to find the staff throwing food at one another. None too pleased, he remarks: “If there’s another food fight, I’m joining in.”

ReplyDeleteHow dare you calumniate the people of Birkenhead! We would have mugged you for the kipper long before you got to church!

ReplyDeleteContrast the kipper-free services in the Dome from Home, with the outdoor training for the diaconate in Menevia

Peas, Brother.
ReplyDeleteIn Scotland do they use the Glasgow kiss? If so a bag of frozen peas could be very useful.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was being confirmed the bishop was supposed to give one a slap and say "Peace be with you!"- so there are precedents!
ReplyDeleteTraditional Bishops still do.

ReplyDeleteZiva: “What will you throw?”
Gibbs: “Peas”
Ziva: “Fresh or frozen?”
Gibbs: “In the can…”
That's a good one.
