Just say no if that's too greedy

Done.

Alan, send either me or alex the sermon to proof read and then we will submit it on the date (just be sure to remind us in case we forget)

He can just put it in the Article Manager ... we can read it there. That way, the by-line will also be accurate.

Sermon uploaded to Article Manager.

thanks,

Yes I saw it yesterday I was waiting for today to have it published, and it is so now.

Hi All

Just to note there are quite a few unfilled Open Sermon slots coming up. These are open to everyone at the Temple (not just clergy or seminarians) - all you need do to take a slot is express an interest by replying to this thread.

May 28 - OPEN SERMON
Jun 4 - OPEN SERMON
Jun 11 - OPEN SERMON
Jun 25 - OPEN SERMON

Speaking from experience, Open Sermons are a great way to communicate with the whole Temple community.

Our theme is BASIC TEACHINGS:

I hope some of you will be interested in writing something for us all to enjoy and consider.

I'd love to contribute, but I have no idea what I would write about.

I edited this in - the theme at the moment is Basic Teachings, meaning something like "What can our doctrine teach us about life?".

I hope that helps... and if you wanted to claim the 25th June you'd have over a month to think about it!

Yes, put me down for June 25th. I'll be working on it.

I'm quite nervous but I would love a slot for June 11th please. My time away has allowed me to learn quite a bit, and I want to contribute that to the community.

Done and done.

You can contact myself, V-Tog, or Alex if you would like help with your sermon. Once you have have written your sermon draft then we can read through it and offer you assistance on improving it (if needed) before it is uploaded proper.

If it is still open, I would enjoy writing for the May 28th sermon

Thank you!

I'll take June 4th if it's still open...

Thanks for filling the slots, guys! It's really great to see such enthusiasm, I can't wait to read what you come up with.

Anyone who missed out, a new schedule of Open Sermon slots will be announced shortly. Make sure you get your name down quickly

Hi guys, any more of these forthcoming?

When are the next slots?

That was my question too.. I phrased it oddly, sorry.

I'm not aware of any current slot, but if you have a sermon written you can submit them to me and I'll post them in an appropriate time.

If the community feels a necessity for having slots like before I'll come up with a few dates based on our current liturgy calendar.
