• 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.

    Number One only works if George Carey is capable of a) self-awareness and b) shame. There is no evidence to support either.

    We can hope you are right about #4.

    Because of #2, I hope your prediction about #4 is not a fond thing, vainly invented, grounded on no hope of things seen in light of actual events.

    Those of us in the US are always wonder what the ABC is up to when stepping over borders.

    I fervently hope that #7 turns out to be the case. It wouldn’t hurt to have a Democratic majority in Congress again, either.

    So true – delayed at Heathrow for nearly an hour because a drone was in out flight path.. maybe a plane will be hit and then they will legislate.
