This Eucharist proceeds as most other 11am Eucharists at Saint Thomas, with two big exceptions:

First, there is a long opening procession, down the center aisle, then up and down side aisles and then back up the center aisle to the altar. Second, there is a lot of incense (at the Opening Procession, at the Gloria, at the Gospel and at the Offertory).

All baptized Christians are invited to make their communion, which is offered at the High Altar rail and, for ease of access, at the Chantry rail.

Our Choir of Men & Boys sings for only three more Sundays before the boys leave for summer break. To hear John Scott’s music notes for this Sunday, please click here.

In addition to preaching at this service, the Rector has recorded some thoughts regarding the nature of the Trinity. You may listen to his weekly audio message here.
