Christmas Masses 2020
I played the organ at Christmas Eve (6:30pm, 11:30pm and an ‘organ carol service’ at 11pm before the 11:30pm Mass). And also 10am on Christmas Day. Not only that, but Fr. Mark concluded that it was safe for 2 of us to sing from the organ/choir loft as we were very distanced from the congretation (and I’m facing the organ). Specifically, he wanted us to sing the Gloria, so a bit of a last minute panic ensued to make sure we remembered it! I’ve put the “carol service’ list in a separate blog post. The hymns were:
