I go to Church a lot. I'm an Episcopalian (formerly a catholicish Methodist, turned MCCer) . I'm also an aspiring Priest and Anthropologist( of the socio-cultural variety). Also, I'm a gay with a wonderful Boyfriend. This blog will likely be a combination of churchy things, anthropology, and things I find amusing. Please forgive my grammar and style, because most of my writing on here is stream of consciousness. I don't argue.

Merry twelfth day of Christmastide. For the last day of Christmas here’s a sketch of the Holy Family from Jan Toorop.

I changed my altar today for advent. I changed the “altar cloth” from white to blue and added my prayers of the people along with icons of the holy family and the annunciation. (Happy Advent!)
