I missed the music liturgy meeting, which is a shame because we may be heading back to normality (OK a new normal) with no community spread in Queensland of Covid 19.
I was going to play at mass last night but got sick with a cold (negative swab for Covid 19) so that was scrubbed. I had seen almost no viral illness for 2 months in suburban General Practice but the children were back at school a few weeks and some rhinovirus has started up. We normally wouldn’t know which virus, as we wouldn’t routinely test colds but we do now because they all get their covid swabs and they show rhinovirus rather than covid 19.
We have gone back to Mason’s Mass of Glory and Praise, although we will use the “Celtic Alleluia” rather than his Gospel Acclamation. We only use the two masses now and I think it is enough. We are back to singing the psalm response and so have only 1 person per 7 square metres.
