Yet another opportunity to quote from Bishop Frank Weston's address to the 1923 Anglo-Catholic Congress.
A wee child taking off her sock to participate in the foot washing.
One of the teenagers saying that, after stripping the sanctuary on Maundy Thursday, "It looked so ... lonely."
Last minute liturgical replanning just before the start of the Good Friday Cross Walk.
Braving the weather to walk from church building to church building in the Rosemont neighbourhood on Good Friday.
The same teenager eagerly volunteering to carry the cross during the Cross Walk.
An excellent walkthrough on Saturday morning before the parish's first ever Easter Vigil.
The novelty and power of the new fire on the step of the church building.
Listening to recording artist Sharon Gudereit singing the Exultet at the beginning of the Easter Vigil. (You can listen here.)
A little confusion but a quick recovery as we reset the sanctuary while the organist played an extended fanfare based on Judas Maccabaeus (which was grand whatever my Jacobite misgivings).
A little girl less enamoured of a washing and kicking her shoes off at the prospect of being baptised on Sunday morning.
Some surprise among parishioners at the deployment of an aspergillium during morning worship.
Services at a care home in the afternoon and at a seniors residence in the evening.
And, to round out your Easter Day experience, here's a bit of Handel with no downside for my Jacobite heart.
