New Setting
Our “trial” of a new, modern setting for the Eucharist continues. Music will be provided for those who can read it. John Wilcox has sourced Youtube links to the various pieces for those of you who can’t read the music. I will forward his email with the links to you separately. Please familiarise yourselves with it in advance of tomorrow. It is a very catchy setting, which will be very easily learned over the next couple of weeks. Good luck.
