[Magdalen] Homing Pigeons.

I dislike some of our lectors' insistence on pronouncing Isaiah as
"eye-ZIGH-uh." An annoying affectation unless you're British. A minor
thing, but I'm always happy to have a chance to say eye-ZAY-uh.

Then there's the lector who tries to make Hebrew names sound Hebrew,
even though they're Anglicized in terms of spelling: Israel comes out
YEESH-ro-el. I want to ask him if he would say, "A reading from the
book of the prophet Yeremiyahu" instead of Jeremiah.
