Grahapravesam service now available from a British Church!
TweetYahoo reports that a British Church is offering a new home blessing service:
A new service is being offered by vicars in the north of England who give blessings to people moving to a new home.They will say prayers for each room, calling on divine assistance to protect the home and the health of those in it.
Individual prayers can be said for every room in the house: For the bedroom, clergy will lay hands on the bed and pray its occupants have a healthy sex life. In the bathroom, they will pray for good health and “give thanks for sanitation.”
Could this be the Christian version of Grahapravesam (new home ceremony)?
