All of these suggestions are new ideas on how I should design my Vigil Area, yet I will admit I have it planned to be held at my church.  But with these Ideas, I think a Vigil at Home will suffice.

The heart, mind, & soul is the home & sanctuary of faith. Your vigil is from within & your physical being at any location carries with it, the means to holy virtue & sanctity. No matter where you hold faith-based ceremony, the practice of virtue is a reflection of your inner-being displayed outwards onto others. Through this display, your chivalry & good-will shines.

Very true indeed Lord Dane.  That is the very purpose of the Vigil, a revelation of Virtue and reverence to Holy Sanctity.

Sir Gerard,

I forgot where you were, sorry...but I will be posting pictures so you'll get to see what I meant.

Sir John,
That would be fantastic.

Sir Gerard,

So do you live near Bradford? I'ver never been to England and doubt I will ever get there. I did see my share of places around the world, though, but not all the ones I wanted to see.

Sir John,
Compared to the States, no where in the U.K. is very far away  ;)
Bradford is about 60 miles northeast from Chester, as the crow flies.
 The town has an interesting history and a good google search shows an abundance of information. It is right in the heart of the industrial north of England.
If there is ever anything more specific you would like to know I will do my upmost to look into it for you.  :)
