Midnight Mass at 7h00

Tonight we went to the Christmas mass. It was supposed to be at midnight. However, in France there are not enough pastors for all of the churches. So, they held it at seven o'clock instead. It was a lovely service. The majority of it, in fact, was singing. The pastor only spoke for about ten to fifteen minutes in total compared to the hour we stood there. It was interesting to hear some of the typical Christmas songs that I hear each year sung in French. They did add some new songs to the repetoire, though. At the end of the mass, I noticed the former Directeur of Saint Paul's, who is also a member of my Rotary club, so I wished him a Merry Christmas.
