Day 32
Tony Russell-PattisonAre you an artist? No
What three Items will you take into the box?
1: The Divine Office
2: Blank Paper Journal and Pen
3: Crucifixion scene in a bottle *
Why do you want to participate in this project?
I don't really know, I saw Bishop Mark's stint, looked up the website and was moved by it. I live as a Christian Solitary (at least partially, I am a priest's housekeeper: stagneslongsight.org the parish in question) and increasingly try to live the moments and seconds of my life according to the the movements of the Spirit. I assume the urge to apply is God moving in one of his/her , oft mentioned, mysterious ways! The God of Surprises constantly surprises. It's up to Him therefore, I will be surprised if you select me and content if you don't. I am no artist, but can and do write well , you would be welcome to my writings of the day.
* This is one of my oldest treasurers. Found in a car boot sale it is a complete Crucifixion scene in an old Zal disinfectant bottle. Myself and my (now deceased) Lover were amazed. It's kitch but with such devotion. The base is dated (1972) and signed , it's hard to describe , but it holds a thread of love through the last 25 years of my life, thus the choice.
