The Bishop's Sermon
Funerals are so common here that they don't often, if ever, have services in the church. So from the tiny Greek community here--I think the Greeks used to be involved in the tea trade, a long time ago, and there's a tiny remnant of a couple families, or maybe only one--a man died yesterday, and we had the "burial"--they don't call them "funerals", but "burials"--that very same afternoon. Nothing at all in the church, and even at the grave, just a Trisagion, which seemed unusually short, even by Uganda standards.
