Jicin, Czech Republic
Sunday, July 1, 2007
On Sunday morning, we all visited the Hussite church in town. The Hussites are an independent Czech off-shoot of the Catholic Church that permits their priests to marry, and their people to share in the cup as well as the bread during communion. But the service was very Catholic, anyway ... the priest led much of it in a sung liturgy (all in Czech, of course). One highlight was that they did an infant baptism during the service. We sang two songs, and some of the kids did things in the service: Andy read scripture in English, and Will and Allison offered short prayers.
