Part 306. Evensong (BCP)

Yesterday I attended Evensong (Book of Common Prayer) at my local parish church. It is over a decade since I attended Evensong.  The language is inspiring, the vicar gave a short and interesting sermon on Isaiah 25.1-9 and the choir sang to a high standard the Anthem: How lovely are the messengers by Mendelssohn.

All done in 45 minutes!  Many years ago I was the Secretary to the Rochester Diocese branch of The Prayer Book Society so I admit to bias.  Recently, I joined Progressive Christianity Network Britain and noted my local parish is listed on the Network's website.

Next week I may attend Matins.
