As I struggle through ordination training one of the things that bothers me about whether or not I am suitable material to be a priest, is that I have never 'encountered Christ' in the sacrament of what a low church girl is getting to describe as the Eucharist. This feels wrong. Surely I should, almost must?! To venerate the reserved sacrament (we don't even have an aumbry) would feel strange, and the Latin incomprehensible (so I'm very grateful for the Little St. Mary's link) but as one who also suffers from a butterfly mind which I think gets in the way of me connecting with Christ at the Eucharist, I'd be willing to try anything. It must happen somewhere near NE Hampshire occasionally! <br /><br />Thank you so much for sharing.ramtopsrachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01125522822674962696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876613.post-44009508782250415042013-04-27T10:59:21.321+01:002013-04-27T10:59:21.321+01:00I came from a Nonconformist background and was con...I came from a Nonconformist background and was confirmed as an Anglican at the age of 30. Even though I have never been part of an Anglo-Catholic parish, my spirituality is strongly inclined in that direction and I recognise so much of what you write here.

This was what had been missing.. It was like wading into a warm lake you could drink from.. Total rehydration. I went to Fisher House & Little St Marys & drank deep! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
