Structure of High Mass At St Peter's
The main service at St. Peter's, the Sunday morning High Mass, takes a typical Anglo-Catholic format. It includes two readings, a sermon from the priest and Holy Communion, as well as the expected ceremony and ritual of incense, vestments and choral singing. The mass under Fr Peter Moss has taken a more Roman Catholic approach as it always concludes with the Angelus being said in the Lady Chapel in front of a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is censed by the priest.
