Today (5/29) we went to church at Bath Abbey. It was a wonderful service. It was a nice blend of 17th century music and modern music. It’s fun to see what parts are the same as our service (like the first paragraph of the Eucharist is the same as ours). I’m always impressed at how global the church is in their focus. They prayed for Christians on the right and left in America debating gun control and for the families in Texas. The sermon was all about how divided Christianity is into different viewpoints and denominations and how we need to come together as Christians and focus on what unifies us. We talked to the minister afterwards and told him how much it resonated with us given the issues confronting the United Methodist Church. He said the Church of England was dealing with similar issues.
We also talked some with the lady who was sitting in front of us in church. She complimented our singing. Turns out she’s an MP (Member of Parliament) representing Bath, although she’s originally from Germany and has family in the town Moritz is from.

Otherwise we had any easy day today. We walked to the botanical gardens and then came back to our apartment and read some. David did buy a couple of books yesterday since they looked fun to read.






Then we ate at Yak Yeti Yak — a Nepalese restaurant. Interesting food! Tomorrow we tour Stonehenge, so that will be fun!
Sounds like an awesome day! Loved the pictures as always 😀
