This Saturday is the 5th Sunday of Lent.
Special thanks to Eva for the piano coverage last week! We ran into some issues with the Communion song, but Shepherd Me, O God and Deep Within turned out pretty well :-)
A planning meeting for Holy Week & Easter was held last Thursday. Things are coming together nicely. Here's what that week looks like for us so far:
- Palm Sunday
- Regular rehearsal & Mass, but some changes to the structure in the first half; possible indoor/outdoor procession (details TBD).
- If we could stick around after Mass, that would be great (I'd be happy to pay for food)! We need to look at the following:
- Storrington Mass - Glory to God
- Storrington Mass - Gospel Acclamation
- GC #419 - Calvary (old book)
- GC3 #898 - Wade in the Water
- Whom Do You Seek? (Killoren)
- GC3 #535 - Resucito
- Good Friday
- Rehearsal @ 12:30 PM
- Liturgy @ 2:00 PM
- Tim, Eva & Jonathan (?) available.
- Easter Sunday (Parish Hall)
- Rehearsal @ 7:45 AM
- Mass @ 9:00 AM
- Jim, Jonathan (?), Tim, Maggie and Joe available.
The music for April has been sent to the Office for approval.
I was supposed to be tied up with an off-site Retreat this weekend, but there was a change in plans and it's been moved to Good Shepherd. I'll be in the building most of the day, and might be able to do Mass after all (depending on the revised plan). Either way, Eva or I will be around to head things up.
