Unaccompanied again so some close harmony. Otherwise our autumn repertoire started. Another priest, new to us, who preached one of the best short homilies I have heard in a while. He is a scripture scholar - but he gave some context for each readings, including the psalm (!) but also a thought for reflection/action.
