Blessing Holy Things

Just want to highlight a comment made on the Glasgow same-sex blessings thread and my response to it.

Don’t Panic - Pray!!

The UK threat level is now at critical (though also at “hilarious” thanks to this cartoon) and almost every hour brings more news. Two more arrested this morning and a suspect package this afternoon in the hospital where the suspect from the Glasgow Airport attack is currently being treated.
