Feast of the Transfiguratiion 2009

This was a particularly fulfilling and great Feast Day.

It began early, setting up St Mary Abbots for a day of reflection, prayer and meditation led by Bishop David Hope.

Then it was into the day itself, on the hour, every hour, a reading, a prayer and hymn reflection the great feast.

After lunch the day continued until I had to leave to preach at St Paul's Cathedral at the Mass of the Transfiguration. It is always a great honour to be in the pulpit graced by so many in the past.

Then, quickly onto the tube and in torrential rain to St George's Campbel Hill Square, where many had gathered for a Eucharist presided over and preached at by Bishop David Hope.

It was a momentous day.

All rounded off at Nandos, Notting Hill where chicken and chips and a nice bottle of white finished the feast.
