Not to highjack you thread, there is a Kirking in Detroit on Nov. 20.. Link

**Prester John** · 16th November 05, 06:50 AM

Not at all!

Wish I could be there...heavy sigh.

Don't forget, folks.

This Wednesday, November 30th at 7 pm Eastern, we are broadcasting our Kirkin' O' The Tartan Service of Thanksgiving in honor of St. Andrew.

The very front of this thread has the "listen live" link, so I won't repeat it here...for now. ;-)

If you are in the Canton, Ohio area, this is the first Kirkin' ever performed in an Orthodox Christian Church. Join us.

If you are not in the Canton, Ohio area, listen live to the broadcast.

Pipe Major Tim Wiley of the Akron and District Pipe Band will be our guest piper.

Oh, what the hey, more info at http://holyassumption.net/rector.html

Pics on our website will follow.

Of course, I will try to make a few pics available here, but most likely, since I'm not good at figuring out how to do that, I'll provide a link to the pictures instead.

I hope that's okay.

John, when you have pictures ready, PM me and I will help you get them linked in to XMarks.

Hey KCW, thank you.

I need all the help I can get on such things.

This promises to be, at the very least, fun and interesting. Pipe Major Wiley is a great guy, and an incredible piper.

People with Scots heritage in my parish are beginning to pop up all over the place, so I've included a special section on the tartans associated with their names, and some district tartan pics too, at least as best as I can tell from the names I know.

Maybe I'll have to post the program, too, just to get feedback about it.

**Prester John** · 30th November 05, 09:07 AM

Have a great day all.

I hope to have you listen in tonight at 7 pm.

I'll be busy for the rest of the day, so have a good one!

I tried to tune-in this evening, Father John, and I couldn't get the player to work...

Same here...

I'm not much of a Christian, but I was just curious

**Prester John** · 30th November 05, 06:50 PM

I just returned from the Kirkin' and my tech guy tells me there was some problem broadcasting.

My most sincere apologies to you all.

For what it's worth, it was wonderful. We had many parishioners, pastors from other Churches, (other Orthodox priests as well, including a Serbian priest who loves the Scots), and, of course, Pipe Major Wiley, who played Lord Lovatt's Lament to begin, and ended with Scotland the Brave.

It was wonderful.

Again, I'm deeply sorry my invitation was prevented on our end.
