Today my Ordination robes arrived. It was a feeling of excitement and realisation of the gravity of my undertaking.

The robes are a beautiful colour, very practical and very long – I am going to need to take needle and thread to them.

The added bonus is there is a pocket! So practical in these times of masks and hand gel.

The robes come in a very beautiful and very practical shoulder bag.

Something that has felt very mythical is suddenly becoming tangible. I’m not leaving until mid July, which will give me enough time to hem them!
