It was a lovely sunny day for Palm Sunday and our worship began in the hall with the gospel reading. We then processed around the church and into the main entrance to hear the reading of the Gospel according to St Mark. Inevitably quite a few people had gone away so the congregation was a little smaller than normal.
There are a number of important services this week - a service of reconciliation on Tuesday night, then the Mass of the Last Supper on Thursday, the Celebration of the Passion on Friday (plus Stations of the Cross), and the highpoint of the church's year - The Easter Vigil - on Saturday night at 8.30pm. Please try to get along to the wonderful Easter Triduum if you can.
Another Easter special is the traditional UCM Easter basket which was raffled off in the hall after mass today.
If you enjoy music, don't forget to buy your tickets for the Rugby Male Voice Choir concert in the church on Saturday April 25th. As well as the choir, our youth music group, plus The Withered Arm (a folk group comprising parishioners) will be on the bill. Tickets are a real bargain at £5 a piece with proceeds going to a fund to support Hugh Potter and Maciek Hume who are travelling overseas next year to help communities in need.
