Vespers

For the first time since the last of the Benedictines left our parish, possibly longer, we celebrated chanted Vespers in the church last night. So that’s the first time in twenty years at least. Probably closer to forty.

It was glorious.

I really wish somebody had thought to take photos.

We had originally printed thirty booklets for the congregation, but a printer’s error resulted in us having double that number. It was just as well, as thirty copies would not have been enough. We were quite surprised at the number of people who joined us.

Please, if you live in the area, you should join us too! We will celebrate Vespers every Sunday during Lent at 5:00pm at Our Lady of the Holy Rosary, Tacoma.
