We were a bit light on musicians, but Mass still ended up being pretty solid. Besides Tom and Maggie, Jonathan came to help us out in Tim's absence. We missed having Joe on percussion, but made it through. Both the Psalm (here) and our new Offertory song, The Play of the Godhead (here), were among our strongest pieces.
Ordinary Time begins next week, 06/24. Father confirmed that we'll be switching back to Mass of Creation, so this will be our last week of doing Storrington Mass. I know there have been mixed feelings about this setting, but it did make for an interesting change in pace. Not sure if there are any plans to bring it back in the future.
Song of the Body of Christ is a tune we don't do too often. If you're not familiar with this, please look it over before Saturday.
Also note that I Am the Bread of Life is the version out of Gather, not Spirit & Song. We don't normally do this one at 5:30, but I'm guessing most of you are familiar with it.
There's a wedding scheduled for 2:30 PM in the Church, so the start of practice might be delayed. Will let you know if we need to meet elsewhere for a few minutes until they wrap up.
