Welcome to our cleansing fire, congregant. Go ahead and toss your squirming bundle onto the pyre if you like—if you’re listening from home, add it to your own fire. O! that char gets the nose tingling. O! how it envigors the soul. We all must be tamed by Story, and if we cannot, must perish in the Church’s hearth for our disobedience. Tell me: what is your shame?InvocationSong: “Flapping Bird”Liturgical Reading: “The Chimera’s Nest”Concluding PrayerWe will return next week, cleansed of our unruly animals and congregants. Heh, maybe we’ll have a few extra seats in the pews.
