What is this web site for?

Over my adult life I have been a pastor and a teacher and have produced a number of things I think potentially helpful to pastors and to teachers of religion. This web site gives me an easy way to share these things. I hope people will check them out. I love to hear from people who have downloaded something and found it useful.

Try out the buttons above and see where they go to. (For example, my settings of gospels for chanting can be found under the button “Liturgy,” then under “Gospel Chanting.” For my settings of Eucharistic Prayers (including the Mozarabic chant), choose “Liturgy,” then “Other Chant.”)

Very Useful: The blessing after Holy Communion is a prime opportunity in any eucharist for variety and creativity on the part of the presider. (And it doesn't require coordination with anyone else or the prior knowledge of anyone else.)
     Check out the Seasonal and General Blessings I have adapted from the Church of England's Common Worship (2000), presented in 8.5 x 5.5-inch booklets for convenient insertion into a Book of Common Prayer. (You print the pdf's back-to-back.) To find them, go to "Liturgy," then to "Other Chant" (though these blessings are words only, no music).
