I have ambivalence about that one! I actually learned the phrase first in a translation of Hava Nagila and it was esté. But yeah, it's one of those places where ser/estar vibe differently! Also, PDFs here: www.episcopalcommonprayer.org/existing-lit... not the same, but useful!

I know, and I'm general I think that the language IS better. Far less stiff, and more idiomatic (while recognizing that what's idiomatic in one country is weird in another!). But in the few things I've prepared in Spanish, I mix and match from the two PDFs.

But also, check the prayer book society? www.biblesandprayerbooks.org/what-we-do

Lots of parishes are not switching. There are PROBLEMS with the copy editing and production. The font (esp. in the psalter) is unconscionably small, the page references (like addit'l directions on page 324) are all keyed to the old book. AND one of the Eucharist prayers just omits the Sanctus!

Try modding on your own? It's a long-term goal of mine to build something like venite with chant tones incorporated. github.com/gbj/venite I'm not 100% sure that's all of it, but that's where I would start.

Either habit or cassock and fascia. But that is also true of going places generally, except, like, physical therapy.

I think this happens a lot. Or they devolve into something we do and no longer know why. It become such a burden that what was supposed to move along a spiritual path actually becomes a stumbling block.

Detest POTS! With how hot it can get under vestments, I practically need a salt lick at the altar. But I'm pretty sure that's an optic too far! Electrolyte-apalooza. I'm sorry about your sitch.

We had our Visitation Mass in the evening, and debated how exactly to do it, but decided that as we started before the sun went down, we were legit still Visitation.

First, CONGRATS! The first time is flipping terrifying. Even if you know it know it. I don't know about it you're a trained singer already, but for the untrained? Terrifying! My voice was quavery AF. And second, who cares how many people do it how often? This is YOURS! 💗

I think of my own more like ambidextrous 😁

I never knew about minor proper before coming to this parish. I love them. I spend hours with Ritual Notes and the Anglican Missal, ignoring the sexism and learning the ceremonial.

My parish does most of these additions (note we do humble access AND Lord I am not worthy). However, both priests are women. I do not understand the association of Anglo Catholicism with sexism! The the movement would have died without Victorian sisterhoods! See Susan Mumm's book.

Also, what are "LGBTQ graduate majors"? Graduate students are rarely referred to as having majors. So the just not want queer people to graduate? Do they think you can major in being queer at Harvard? Do they think that the existence of Harvard prevents plumbers from existing? #SMH
