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.
