Hello, it Rebecca Anna Coleman here! Many of you know me as that girl who writes stories that feature anime like characters and often have anime like plots. Most know me as that one girl who always seems to set her stories in Mississippi. But many of you don't know that I've also an the solo acolyte of my local Episcopal Parish, Trinity Episcopal Church.

Now, I've returned two Sunday's ago to resume being the solo acolyte in our tiny Episcopal Parish. And it's been rough, anyway today was Palm Sunday and while I'm sure it's not liturgically correct, as the litugical color for Palm Sunday is Red! Anyway, as kind of a 'test the waters' kind of thing I decided to wear a trans pride ribbon tied around my ponytail today! I know, you guys were expecting pigtails.. as they appear in many of my stories, but a ponytail seemed more suited. Plus, I'm still in the 'Egg' in RL. I only dress at home and I'm only known as "Rebecca" here and to my many friends on Discord and in the Gaming and Anime Community. And well.. nothing happen.

Two people, the ones that read the New York Times and follow the news raised an eyebrow but said nothing. Most just shrugged their shoulders and said "That James.. being James.." Their still shocked that I crossed over to the Roman Catholic side walked for a bit before coming back to the Episcopal Side. One little girl thought my ribbon was pretty and said she wanted the Easter Bunny to bring her one. And one boy, just looked at it a really long time before shifting his gaze from me to the bell tower.

So nothing happen, beside I tripped over a lose cobblestone and landed on my face! Very anime! So yes, that was Rebecca's Palm Sunday in a nutshell. I'll keep you informed as we are now entering Holy Week! Yay Holy Week! Six days of services, rushing to get the hard in shape for egg hunts, and twisting and spinning around as I try to wringle a confession from sou! In short, thank you gals for being my online family. Have a blessed and happy Easter!

Rebecca’s Palm Sunday?

I could only think, “make that ‘Face Palm Sunday!’” Listen, if the Catholics and Episcopalians are competing for your soul, you should be golden — no one will hassle you. They’ll be friendly, like the cable company is just after you tell them you’re about to sign with their competitor. :)

Very best wishes for Holy Week, my dear!

Blessed is SHE...

It's early this year, Rebecca. I do hope you didn't do yourself any damage tripping over. Where was that pesky cobblestone? Sue its stone heart off!

You have to be something special

You have to be something special if the most are shrugging and saying "That James... being James...". Is there some story behind it?
