The induction of the new priest

Father Christopher Smith became the tenth parish priest of St Alban Holborn- probably the most famous church associated with anglo-catholocism. The service was lavish with wonderful music and a great sermon from Bishop Wheatley. The reception afterwards was less than lavish- I always find the richer the church then the poorer the food.  But all the energies go into the feast of the service.   I tried to capture some of the drama and theatre of the Mass but only dared to record the entry of the Bishop into the main church.
