Announcements: At the arrival on Friday there will be time to discuss the self-study undertaken in the preparation for the course. The Priest Ordination will be divided over the five weekends, and the first part will begin with the wording according to the Epistle “Eternal Spirit…” In the evening the Prolog to the Gospel according to John will be read, and attention should be paid to it in the sermon. The focus on Saturday will be given to the guest lecturer and their course offerings. There will be at least one artistic course unit in the afternoon. Questions about the courses, and the Gospel will be given an hour before dinner on Saturday. The hour after dinner should enable a comfortable conversation about course topics - hence the mythological stories…. Sunday is when the course connects most strongly with the community, and there will be presentations for the community after the consecration and a short tea break.
