[Magdalen] Stay-at-home order

[Scott Knitter]

One of the Wednesday Evening Prayer officiants that I alternate with week
by week (I'm trying to move on from that to other things) emailed me to ask
if I'm planning to lead EP via Zoom. I said I've never used Zoom and hadn't
planned on this, and I wasn't aware we were going to try to keep the Office
going online now that the church is sealed.

I know I should stand my ground and just say no. It's a good thing to do
(praying EP, that is), but maybe I missed a memo about the officiants
keeping it going on their regular days...I don't think the Morning Prayer
people are keeping MP at 7:10 a.m. (EP is at 6:10 p.m. normally, in church).
