Dear all
Here is what I believe to be the order for Saturday morning. Please note the hymns have changed from those initially advised. Praise to the Holiest will be sung first and to Richmond, Cornerstone will be the Offertory Hymn. The final hymn has also changed. I’ll have copies available for those that need.
Saturday 11th October, 11.30 am, Truro Cathedral.
Robed where possible. Rehearsal from 10.00.
Please do not enter the Cathedral until 9.50 (unless you are joining morning prayer at 9.30.) Go straight to the Chapter House where we will line up in procession to enter the Cathedral. This year all robing is in the Chapter House. We will return to the Chapter House at 11.00 to take a short break, (bring your own drink/snack for that moment) before assembling there and leading the procession down the North Aisle. There is a wedding following the service, refreshments will be served in the Chapter House but it may be necessary to leave the building afterwards via the four steps of the fire escape route.
