MASS-ON-THE-GRASS

God was very good to give us such lovely weather last Sunday. We had been starved of good celebrations of mass. You sensed its importance coming as you did in such great number. I thank you for coming. We had music – carefully rehearsed – technical expertise for perfect audibility and a lot of hard work from 7am and days before. All the week people have been talking about it. It was a sublime example of good liturgy and enthusiastic sharing of prayers and picnic. That was the prelude. Now we all need to pick up our individual tasks to make the orchestra of our parish life.
