I didn’t make it out to church today, I wasn’t well enough, but instead I read a Sermon by a friend, The Rev’d Dr Peter Thompson, FIGOC.

Fr Peter begins,

There was a shocking photograph in the newspapers some time back. A cart was being driven through the streets of a city in the Far East. On the cart were standing 15 or 20 men. Round the neck of each, hanging from a string, was a notice. On the notice was written the particular crime they were accused of. When they reached the end of their journey, so the report said, they were taken off the cart. Two of the men were selected, and were publicly beheaded. The others were taken back to prison, to await the pleasure of the government. The purpose of the notices was obvious. Read the rest of his sermon,
