Renewing My Vows...

I made private vows nine years ago. Some of my friends at the time were horrified - "What if Mr. Right turns up tomorrow?" I pointed out that he'd be Mr. Wrong, because he was too late: God got there first! I can honestly say that I haven't regretted my decision.

I'm renewing my vows next month (I don't need to renew my vows, they are permanent as far as I'm concerned) which makes an excellent excuse for a party. It'll be on 3rd December, which is the first Saturday, so that means that we have our monthly Missa Cantata and visiting schola. The Mass starts at 10:30am, and is finished about 11:30am, and I will renew my vows after Mass. There will be a bit of a party in the large hall, and then solemn sung Vespers at 2:30pm to finish up.

You are all most welcome. It would be helpful to know numbers (for catering purposes) but don't let that put you off if you suddenly find you're free...

    I really hope to come, but may have people staying. Could you pencil me in – I'll confirm nearer the time? Thanks.

    I'd love to attend, but it is a "bit" of a flight! Congratulations on your renewal and your devotion to the Lord. I hope you have a grand group at the Mass!

    D.v.

    Congratulations, Mac. I myself just celebrated the first anniversary of my perpetual profession as a lay Dominican last month. (At professions, which is held in October, those of us who were already lifers renewed our professions.)
