First Sunday of Advent




There is no such thing as bad publicity so they say, so here we go . What on earth has Trago Mills got to do with the First Sunday in Advent. Well, apparrently if you go to Trago Mills or at least the Liskeard branch, there is a a guy (presumably employed by Trago) shouting out how many days and hours of shopping there are left until Christmas and with a leap of poetic (or preaching) licence, Father Mark likened the start of Advent to the beginning of such a countdown. Musically it marked a change for us with a new Mass setting (Newquay Mass #4 penned by choirboy) and a new memorial acclamation (also by choirboy). We have also purloigned our Alleluia from the 70s musical Godspell with a bit of musical adaptation by choirboy.

Entry Song of body of Christ

Alleluia Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia
