SEND IN THE CLOWNS

Mark your calendars for next Sunday when you can witness a clown deliver a high-wire church sermon in a cathedral in Herts, England:
Canon Stephen Lake, Acting Dean of St Albans, said: "We're looking forward to welcoming the clowns and seeing how they use fun and laughter to communicate the Christian message. Sometimes we can take ourselves too seriously, so when they approached us to help celebrate their anniversary, we were happy to accept."

Neil Wilkin, 'chair fool' of Holy Fools, who lives in St Albans, said: "We are inviting people to fall in love with the fun and foolishness of the clown, and to be caught up in the magic and mystery of Christ's message to the world."

The clowns will take part in a Parish Eucharist at the Cathedral at 9.30am.

What Would Bozo Do?
