18 January 2016
This Sunday, on a cold and raw day we assembled at 10 am for Matins. The new testament reading set for today was the story of the miracle at the Wedding at Cana. This story has many interpretations and layers of meaning, and Father Stephen discussed some of this in his sermon. Of the many meanings of this first miracle, it occurs at a wedding, in the midst of ordinary life, where our christian faith belongs permeating every part of our lives.
The Choir sang the Introit 'Oh Taste and See' by Ralph Vaughan Williams as the anthem. There was coffee after the service.
There are still tickets available for the Italian Supper on January 30th please see the Church wardens. Don't forget Father Stephen's illustrated talk on the art of Venice on Thursday 28th of January!
