A very English Festival of readings and carols is provided by the eccentric English priest, Jonathan Hagger (aka "Madpriest") at the online site, St Laika's. This is a wonderful service that includes a variety of unusual English carols, as well as Fr Hagger's sonorous tones for the readings. You can download a podcast, or stream it live on line. We enjoyed listening to it whilst preparing our Christmas Eve meal.Quite apart from Christmas, St Laika's offers a daily office, as well as other services, a prayer list, and interesting sermons. If you are traveling or otherwise unable to attend services, or you want a brief respite for reflection, this is an outstanding resource--and despite its unusual venue and name, a very traditional theology. And the music is diverse and wonderful. Join the inclusive, international, on-line community at St Laika's.
