new college communion
i thought i dropped my keys during a lecture in martin hall and went back to check and walked into this. friend & i stayed for the service. very standard communion. focus on st andrew as 1st of advent falls on his feast day this year.

aura
4/10 priest was great loud projecting voice and an extremely firm handshake but the slideshow made it feel a lot like a lecture
-
holiness
4/10 too lecturey but otherwise in possession of standard anglican holiness.
-
smell
5/10 literally no comments
-
community
7/10 all the ministry candidates from around NC were in attendance which was rlly nice, and apparently have been doing so since the start of the yea. also afterwards they all go for lunch in rainy hall
-
engagement
6/10 pretty standard communion service nice focus on st andrew.
-
music
7/10 best hymns so far on account of not featuring an acoustic guitar and also being from hymn book I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.
-
theology
7/10 yeah i mean it's anglicanism
-
nice older ladies
9/10 also really really good singers
final score: 6/10
convenience is nice, community is nice. i think its so awesome that we do communion in new college for whatever reason. but martin hall will forever be nothing more than a teaching room for me. communion being here felt very weird
