• Christmas Services

    Today, Christmas Eve, at 4 pm there’s a Christmas Crib Service for all ages – see the photograph below for a picture of last year’s crib service.
    Then at 6.30 pm there’s the Cathedral Carol Service featuring the full Cathedral Choir of trebles and adults.
    At 11.15 pm, midnight mass begins which will feature the Cathedral Choir singing Charpentier’s Messe de Minuit with small orchestra.
    On Christmas Day there will be a glorious Sung Eucharist at 10.30 am.

    I will be preaching the incarnation at both Midnight Mass and on Christmas Day.

    What do you call the fabby vestment-with-train +Idris is wearing? I thought that the falda was for Popes only!

    Whatever you do, don’t show these pictures to the successful candidate in tomorrow’s election. It might give her/him ideas.

    I think that +Idris was wearing a Cappa Magna.

    Maybe its because I am from the US, but some of the pictures made me distinctly uncomfortable!No, I am not “low” church. And I didn’t think that +Idris looked all that comfortable in some of the “long train” photos. It is beautiful, but far too Roman looking for my taste. And need I say that where were the women in this party? 😉
