This Sunday our 10 am service was a Eucharist, celebrated by Father Stephen who is back from his short break. We continue our Gospel readings from St Luke, and this week we heard the 'lost Parables' In his Sermon father Stephen pointed out that the third of these lost parables, the story of the Prodigal Son follows on from this passage, but is not used on this occasion. The message of God's love even for the repentant sinner as told in the story of the Prodigal Son follows the logical build up from the other stories of the lost sheep and the lost coin to show us the true message of Our \Lord's words.
The Choir is back in session and sang, as the anthem the Ave Verum in the setting by Gounod. There was coffee after the service.
