Midnight mass

[BigonaBianchi]

I'm going to over in the and renew my friendship with and hear some carols sung by a bunch of ....anyone else going?

Alas not this year, but usually I try and go. Usually a good sing-song to get one in the festive mood!

well I'm jus tback...cycled to th efirst church to find it was shut ???????????????????....so cycled along to lancing and found another one...this time open for business. Was a bit weird being on my own but actually found it reassuring.....I have a few sins to repent for, and this seemed as good a place as any to do it. Was amused by a line in the service sheet that read: " Please remain standing if you still can"

I am a catholic, and last night Lois & I attended midnight mass at my church: St George's on Sprowston Road here in Norwich. What Suprised me was the church was only about 3/4 full: Usually the Christmas Midnight Mass is standing room only with over spill into the main and side aisles, the side chapel and entrance porch.

same here....I guess they are all at home looking after themselves like the good lord told us....God helps those who help themselves...hmmmm

Hanging from the rafters, and sat on the sanctuary, at Midnight Mass in the 'sham. Packed. As in jam. Drunks got no further than the porch... the joys of a town centre church.

Not been to midnight mass for years, always go Christmas morning instead.
Nice to see the church so full, but it tends to get pretty full most Sundays anyway.
