3/18/2025 0 Comments Wednesday Morning CommunionWe have started a Wednesday morning communion service. March 12th, 2025 was our first service and it went very nicely. The service is a combination of Morning Prayer (Lauds) and Communion and most of the service is chanted. Incense is used, but if you are sensitive to incense then we can certainly omit it - we would rather you be here so let us know if you are sensitive to incense.
