The Transfiguration of The Lord Yr. A Psalter Wk 2
Sung Mass 11.00am
Good Morning and welcome to our Parish Mass. Today we keep the feast of The Transfiguration of The Lord. The Transfiguration is always kept on the 6th August each year. It is one of the special days in the church’s year that we have a memorial of here. Along with some saints and events (The Baptism of Jesus), we have a stained glass window dedicated to the Transfiguration located in the side chapel. It is not by chance that James Brookes the architect here placed it between the scene of Calvary and the Resurrection, as today’s gospel narrative describes. It is a story of our lives too. Often positioned between The Cross and The Glory. Seeking always the balance to follow Christ; through and in the Cross of Life.
