Evening Prayer at St. Paul's

Here is our Evening Prayer for the week of Laetare midweek. If you want to see the service itself, you can skip ahead to minute 15. The first 15 minutes are our congregational hymn-sing.

This stuff needs a wider audience than just the internet.

Gethsemane has a nice tenor line which can be used as a descant and sung a little mournfully for good effect.

You and some of your buddies should put together a 24-hour website with (taped or live) webcasts of the mass, the hours, as well as Bible studies.

What an awesome alternative this would be to EWTN or the televangelists that our laypeople are being influenced by.

William,

Praise to your work and proclamation.

I agree with the other comments especially about the 24-hour webcast. My son, Bryan, has spoken to me about doing pod-casts. How serious are you about connecting to the world wide web?

Father Weedon,

What a beautiful service.
What is the name of the liturgical hymn sung between 53:50 and 58:44? Is it from the new hymnal?
Thank you for posting.

Thanks all for the kind comments. Jim, I haven't the foggiest notion about podcasts! :)

About the hymn - it was a metrical version of the Magnificat by David Haas: "Holy is Your Name." It uses an old Scottish melody. Sadly, it's NOT in the new hymnal. I did try to get in there, though.
