5th Sunday of Lent - any room will do ?

On this the fifth Sunday of Lent, Father Mark told us of the story of Brian Moore and his 'story' about 'The room'. You can read it here: -

Whatever you think of the origins of this tale and there is some controversy (http://www.snopes.com/glurge/room.asp), it is a powerful testimony that should make all of us think about the nature of our lives and how we live them.

On the musical front in the absence of Mary who was ill, choirboy had to make a last minute change to the music liturgy. However, despite our depleted numbers our music went well and we sang the psalm which choirboy had set to music for the organ. Let's hope Mary is better next week, thanks to Kevin for the guitar stand (and good luck in Norfolk).
