The Curate in Highley (CIH)

These are the exploits of a clergyman. They tell of his experiences - some good and some not so good, the ups and downs of everyday life for someone who now lives life in the public eye.

Week One, Day Three

Wednesday this week saw the CIH attending a service of Holy Communion in the morning. Later that same morning he went to visit some parishioners and came away bearing a bag of the largest courgettes he had ever seen. Decided to try freezing them. He will cook some of them up to make a vegetarian lasagne to serve to the RIH for lunch next Monday.

That afternoon, he gave himself a migraine by playing Welly Wanging at the Junior School's sports day. Ninety minutes in the full sun with clerical shirt and collar with no hat and nothing to drink is asking for trouble. Tried to shake off the migraine before going to home group that evening. Took usual pills but still couldn't shake it. Topped up the tablets and left. A simple prayer by one of the group members asking for God's healing was all that was needed. Two and a half hours later, a discussion on the 'Armour of God' (see Ephesians 6) over, prayer time finished and the CIH made his way home.
