THE PASCHAL CANDLE
The Paschal Candle is an integral part of the Easter tradition and particularly the Easter Vigil. Below are back and front images of St Peter's Paschal Candle for 2012 but the candle and the tradition are more than just "back and front" - they are also detail and meaning. Even if those meanings may not immediately be obvious - for example - the wonderful image of Rapid - a canine on a Paschal Candle. Click here to view the Paschal Candle Page, with more detailed images, and an explanation as to the significance of both images and the candle itself.

MUSICAL ADDITIONS
Miss the good old days when you were part of the choir at St Peter's? Remember Tony Jennings and wish you had some of the recordings made under this direction? You do have some of the recordings made under his direction but the grooves are well worn down, it's getting harder to get the record player needles and the sound is no longer quite the same? Or do you have a love for superb choral singing.
Well do we have a treat for you
