Shameless plug for an upcoming book from St. Lazarus Press! Coming August 26: CAUTIONARY TALES FOR CAREFUL CLERICS, a new volume of humorous poetry that warns of clerical errors and their often lethal, always hilarious consequences. If you like Mascall & Belloc, you'll like this. ⚓

Anglo-Catholics! 🕯️ You know and love this Anglican chant setting of the Angelus. But you never know where to find it or how to get just the parts of it you want. Well, fear no more. All in one spot here, sized for bulletin insert:

Not a knower, but have wanted see the RC cathedral for the "though we or an angel from heaven preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you let him be anathema" art, which I hear was not deliberate for the area but I'm not so sure.

Many small EOW suggestions I think could gain broad-base support if proposed. For instance, this threefold petition for the branches of the US government in the litany, instead of for the President only (I would reword, but concept is very good):

The Press's latest is Anglican Prayers for Busy People, a gentle revision of an original Montreal work from 1909 that provides short accessible prayers for each day of the week. For the first time this book is available in French as well:

Critical update: it was entirely this sort of thing.

Ad in a 1980 diocesan journal, and I wish I knew what it was about. ⚓

Archbishop of Canterbury Robert Runcie visits Dallas, 1989. Confirmands in Irving gave him a Stetson.

Hmm, looks up on my end -- could you describe more?

Not a dig, but a tip: if you have a logo to put on your bulletins etc. and notice fuzzy edges or artifacts, what you want to do is convert your image into svg (scalable vector graphic) format and use that. Text is vector-scaled already, which is why it looks great while images are fuzzed. ⚓ 🧵

Latest is Anglican Prayers for Busy People, a small Montreal collection originally published in 1909 now gently updated for modern use (also available in French):

Putting a parish ad here if I may. St. Lazarus Press publishes for the Church of St John the Evangelist in Montreal QC, a place very special to me. They're the only Prayer Book parish left in QC and have faced some lean years, hence the Press as fundraiser:

A while back, @rpryor03.bsky.social and @askwallace.bsky.social and I set Eliza Humphreys' metrical paraphrases of the BCP collects to tunes. Here's St. Stephen's to DETROIT, one of my favorites in the collection:
