The theme of this second Sunday of Advent is the biblical arrival of John the Baptist preparing a way for the birth of Christ. This week Choirboy was well prepared with copies of our musical liturgy available for the congregation. He was taking no chances on the photocopier, so had prepared all in advance. With no Jimmy, who has gone to Ireland for a few days, the space next to Choirboy was taken by Louise. Fortunately Danny was being entertained by Jill B, although I think mum was a bit anxious about not being needed ! With some of our liturgy being a bit unfamiliar to the congregation it will probably take until the end of Advent until we get it right - c'est la vie !
Some of Choirboy's music is taking a Christmas vacation to the Philippines. One of our congregation is getting married in her home country and has asked Choirboy to produce the music for Hail Holy Queen so she can have this at her wedding. He was happy to provide not only the music but also a CD with a recording of it (he is not altogether confident in his ability to translate what is in his head to the stave). Good luck Maria !
On a completely different note, did you know that spiritual food is full of transubstantiated fats ? Confused ? Just ask Louise or Maz to explain.
