Palm Sunday procession and it wasn't (quite) raining.... managed to keep roughly in time to All Glory Laud and Honour as we waddled outside into the churchyard, around the church, and back inside again as the organ struck up 'Ride on Ride on in Majesty'. The anthem was 'God so loved the world' by Stainer (good excuse for an extra rehearsal for tonight!).
No evensong tonight - we sang Stainer's Crucifixion as a devotion instead. The only extras were prayers and two extra hymns. Two good soloists - a pleasure to listen to, and some magic moments, despite the often-criticised 'Victorian slush' - who shall forbid us to wallow in it occasionally?
