Zoom Worship for St George's Day

Archdruid: Peace be With You

All: .......................................

[Hnaef shouts through wall]: You've muted us!

Archdruid: Oops. Hang on...

Archdruid: Peace be With You

All: And with your spirit, life force or alternative expression of a psychic dimension.

George: Yeah, I've got to go cos she's here, Reg. I love you too....*

Archdruid: George! Get back on mute!

All: Have you shouted at the Patron Saint?

Archdruid: Different George. Where were we?

All: Peace be with you.

Archdruid: And with your spirit, life force or alternative expression... hang on, we're the wrong way round. Let's go from the confession.

All: We are sorry that we have drunk too much, gone on Facebook too much, looked at the news too much, and eaten too much. We were going to write a series of novels, learn Dutch, teach ourselves the piano, lose two stone in weight each and become all-round nicer people. Instead, the lawn is unmown, the walls are unpainted, the spring has gone and we have not recently shaved.

Archdruid: We were told to do something to raise our heart rates.

All: But we've read the Daily Mail and it's not helped at all.

Archdruid: Keep at it, guys. We're doing our jobs.

All: Thanks, Eileen. Can you order some pizzas and wine in the shopping?

George: I mean, a 48 inch bust is all very well, but it doesn't get the dockets in...

Archdruid: George! Will you get on mute! And then stop failing at multitasking!

George: OK, Archdruid. I've just got Sybil Thorndike on green. I can't really talk, because she's here.

Archdruid: I love you too.

Reading: And in those days, Saint George came from Turkey. But fighting dragons was not a permitted exercise, so he stuck to just taking it for a walk round the park. And he had no problems with social distancing.

Blessing

Archdruid: Stay where you are, to the glory of God and the health of the world.

All: Righty-ho.
