If you are a parent or a teacher, by this time of year, you may be feeling frazzled, fatigued, frayed, or if you're watching the Canucks, just plain frustrated.
Tomorrow night, Rev. Locey is offering something very special for Whitsun, a vespers service. Now I may just be getting old, but I don't recall ever having a vespers service here in Vancouver before, especially not for Whitsun.
It's a very special way of being able to detach yourself from the events of the day, perhaps even dating back to the Essenes, especially when it is preceded by a community meal.
In my own limited experience, I have found it to be renewing and re-enlivening - but you'll just have to come and "see" for your Self.
If you can't make it for 6:00 for the potluck, I recommend "shooting" for the service at 7:00.
Hey - it's been 40 years - it's our turn for the Cup!
