We had a YPG Mass at 6:00pm last Sunday 15th May.
It was the Sunday of Pentecost, and we celebrated by having the
flame of the Easter Candle on the Sanctuary carried to everyone
in the church - each lighting their own candle from the single
flame.
Penetcost is the last time the Paschal candle will be lit
during the Mass. From now until next Easter, it will only be lit
during Baptisms.
Once we had got everybody's candle lit, we got Fr Anthony to
go round with the bucket and see how many he could put out! (Actually,
he performed the ceremony of Asperges and blessed the congregation
with water!). We all then repeated our Baptismal vows."
