From the Rector
·
I ask that both prior to the start of service and
following the Eucharist (before the closing prayer) that
silent meditation may be maintained so that those
wishing to be in the presence of God may do so
undisturbed by others around them.
·
As Mass starts promptly at 10:30 AM, I ask all members
be on time so that those currently seated may not be
inconvenienced.
·
I ask the congregation to please refrain from excessive
movement (getting up and down) during the sermon or
during the prayers unless it is absolutely necessary as
it is distracting for the preacher and congregants
alike.
