This photograph was taken during the children’s crib service which took place this afternoon. As well as this re-enactment of the Christmas story, we had devotions before the crib and sang several carols. It is always a lovely time as our Sunday School children come together amidst much excitement at the approaching festivities.
The vigil Mass also went really well with some fifty people in attendance. Next is the jewell of the crown tonight’s Midnight Mass at which we pull out all the stops and rejoice in the birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ. A blessed Christmas one and all. May you not only kneel in adoration before his crib but let him be born in you afresh, that he might walk with you throughout this coming year.
Thank you, Father Ed. I have a warm spot in my heart for you.
Many thanks Ed and thanks for keeping good debate going in you blog in 2014.
Hope you and yours have a very, very merry Christmas!
Merry Xmas from Africa, to you Father Ed.
Dear Fr
I am currently working on the Portsmouth Ordinariate blog. Would you possibly place a link to it? There are some nice photos of today’s Mass (Ordinariate Rite of course). Thanks portsmouthmission.wordpress.com
