Our vicar often says, “The Church isn’t the
building – it’s the people”.
So the
thought of spending Good Friday and Easter Sunday without being able to grieve
and rejoice alongside other members of our church family, made Nigel and I
feel subdued.
In the end,
our vicar and curate rose to the challenge and services were available not only on
Facebook, but also YouTube, AND Zoom.
I felt like
emailing to complain that there was no Skype or Teams version available. But when you are not face to face, people
sometimes don’t realise you are joking.
It was a
comfort to wave to our lovely friends on Zoom.
But my favourite moment was when, with the Good Friday service just about
to begin, a black square appeared on the grid, labelled “Unknown Host”.
I muted our
mic and nudged Nigel. “The Holy Ghost
really is present with us today.”
