Katherine: I'm not in a position to comment on the theological distinctions between The PCC and The UCC, but your comment did prompt me to see what "Song of Faith" would look like in a word cloud: click to see Evangeline: You are not the first to comment on the prominence of the word "may" in the Book of Forms word cloud. Ironically, I almost excluded it from the cloud when I created it as a "common word" like "the" and "it". In hindsight, I'm glad I left it in.

I have not read the Book of Forms. My impression of it, up until now, has been that it is very rigid in its stance on protocol and procedure. The size of the word ‘may’ makes me think I have the wrong impression. That could be a good thing!

Re: Living Faith I’m glad ‘God’ is the largest word. I wish the word ‘Spirit’ was a little larger as I believe we cannot continue in our faith without the Spirit’s help, guidance and comfort.

I have often wondered about the “differences ” between the United Church in Canada, and our Presbyterian beliefs.
