The Feast of St. Margaret will follow the medieval liturgies of York and Salisbury, with some modifications for practical considerations. The matins lessons that tell the story of St. Margaret will be sung in English. The ceremonial of the mass will be of a low mass rather than a high mass; incense will be omitted. The full program and registration details are available here.
