Our Lent services started this Sunday with Matins, it being the third Sunday in February. Our readings in Matins are taken from the King James version of the Bible, the New Testament reading was the story of the Temptation of Christ in the Wilderness. Fr Stephen preached on this subject, and reminded us that when we are in our own personal wilderness, we do not despair because Jesus is with us. As is set for Lent we sang the Benedicite, set by Lloyd rather than the Te Deum, and the Choir sang Almighty and Everlasting God by Orlando Gibbons, ed le Huray and Willcox as the anthem.
