The summer solstice is here. I am having two longest days of the year in 2007. I have noticed the difference as there is about an hour’s difference between the longest and the shortest days in Zambia. Today has been a full day at the parish. Two weddings and a funeral in addition to the two scheduled Masses and a Small Christian Community also has their Advent Mass tonight.
I did the funeral for a commander in the Lusaka police force. There were many policemen attending the service and the first funeral with a police escort. The wife was a member of the Adventist Church and their women all wore blue and white. We rushed the funeral a bit to accommodate the wedding, but the bride was a full two hours late. So much for the solstice being used for time.
