Wednesday is a day to keep tuned into the radio if you don’t want to miss a triple-header of Scottish Episcopal Church contributions on the BBC.

First up for the earliest of early birds is the Rev Philip Blackledge, giving ‘Prayer for the Day’ on Radio 4. The Rector of Holy Trinity in Melrose will be on air at 5.43am, and his broadcast will also be available on the BBC website.

Then at just after 7.20am, the Rev Diana Hall provides ‘Thought for the Day’ on BBC Radio Scotland breakfast programme Good Morning Scotland. The Rector of St Anne’s in Dunbar will reflect on the precious gift of education, as schools go back this week in Scotland just as children in Afghanistan gather outside closed school doors.

And at 3.30pm, Choral Evensong on BBC Radio 3 comes live from St Mary’s Cathedral in Edinburgh, with music by David Bednall, Dyson, Stanford and Whitlock. The hour-long programme will be available again on the BBC website shortly after broadcast, here.

(N.B. Only the reluctant admission that the web editor’s points of reference are getting slightly dated stopped this item being headlined ‘Wireless Wednesday’)
