Today our 10 o'clock service was Sung Eucharist.The Bible readings were from The Revelation of St John, and St Matthew's Gospel. In his sermon Father Stephen told us that the New rooms project is making progress, with hopes of some activity on the site by the end of the year! He asked us to pray for guidance and encouragement for a member of our congregation to come forward for ministry, as we shall have eventually to think about how we go forward when Father Stephen retires! The choir sang 'The Crown of Thorns' words by A.N. Pleshcheev translated by G. Dearmer, music by P.I.Tchaikovsky. There was coffee after the service.

A new year and our first Sunday was our Family Service. Today we celebrated the Feast of the Epiphany, on which three events are remembered, the arrival of the Magi, the wedding at Caana in Galilee and the Baptism of Our Lord. Today we concentrated on the arrival of the Magi. We sang 'We Three Kings' a traditional Carol, whilst our own three kings processed to the front of the Church and proceeded to tell us something about the gifts they bought with them and the traditional significance of Gold, Myrrh and Frankincense. After communion the Choir sang 'The Nativity Carol' by John Rutter. The service was followed by coffee and soft drinks in the North Transept.
Tickets for the Silent Auction with Wine and Cheese to be held on the 31st January are on sale from the Church Wardens.
A Happy New Year to everyone, from all at St Mary Our Lady!
