Highly recommended - a poem via Lesley, "I am the vicar, I am". That's highly recommended unless you don't like good poetry, or you've a pathological and incurable hatred of vicars.
A bit like the beatitudes, I'm not sure whether the poem reflects an aspiration, where this vicar is, or what people think s/he's like. Or, most likely, a bit of all three. Anyway, it's brilliant.
(and thanks to Daisy for correcting me. I never was any good at reading the small print...)
Hmmm, er, cough. I may be wrong but I think Lesley is quoting a poem written by Kevin (who seems to be a man).

Aha... I was never very good at reading the small print! Wording now corrected, thanks.
DeleteRead it. Loved it. Sent it to our Vicar and to our Vicar-to-be. It gives me a new framework to pray for them.
