Apostles - called to serve...



The Apostles we were reminded today were ordinary men. They did, however, do an extraordinary thing. When called by Jesus, they left everything to follow him - such was their belief. Are we listening ? Would we answer the call in the same way ? Are we ready to something extraordinary for Jesus ?

In the musical sense today, fortunately (or unfortunately) nothing extraordinary happened, unless you count one of choirboy's strings breaking during the Agnus Dei. It was the same string which broke no less than a month ago - getting too carried away apparrently. As luck would have it choirboy had a spare guitar in the sacristy (as you do). So in between birthdays (happy birthday Francis) and Father's day, we managed to navigate through a joful liturgy with no Jimmy or Mary but we welcomed back Jess and her flute !

Entry : - Song of the body of Christ

Gloria: -

Alleluia : - Folk Alleluia

Offertory: - All that I am

Sanctus (Newquay Mass # 3)
Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and God of might. Heaven and earth are full of Your glory, Hosanna, Hosanna. Blessed is he who comes in Your name, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest. Hosanna, Hosanna

Mystery of faith : - Christ has died

Amen Amen Amen. All glory to Our Lord and King. Songs of praise to You we sing in honour of Your sacrifice; Christ our Lord who brings us life. Amen, Amen, Amen.

Agnus Dei (Newquay Mass #3)
Lamb of God, Lamb of God, You take away, the sin of all the world (repeat)
Have mercy on us, have mercy on us, have mercy on us and grant us Your peace

Communion: - Bread of life, Truth eternal

Recession: - I will be with you
