Part One (For High Definition - Wide Screen Version - Read the new revised directions in below "Notes!" You can now watch our church services in HD-TV!) - This is the beginning segment of the December 14, 2008 church service - the Third Sunday of Advent - at Trinity Episcopal Church, Fredonia, N.Y. Advent is the waiting period before Christmas for Christians in preparation for celebrating the birth of Jesus, Our Savior! Video Credits are shown in this opening segment with background music sung by the choir. At the beginning of the service a cross mounted on a long staff is carried at the head of the opening procession. A processional hymn is sung as the celebrant, choir and assistants walk slowly down the center aisle. Video recording & editing by Bill Parks, Stanwrite@aol.com -- www.ChurchTVsite.com.

Notes: 1) To watch the latest videos on the Episcopal33 channel in high definition, click on the words beneath the screen "watch in HD." If your connection speed is slow, there will be periodic pauses after the video starts playing. To overcome this problem, download the entire video before watching it. That is, let the red line play out to the right under the screen in 11 minutes while you engage in another activity - "get a cup of tea." Come back to the computer after the video has downloaded completely and click the play button. This time there will be no interruptions. 2) If you click on the icon to display the video in full screen mode, then it's best to view in high definition and also view from a distance just like you would a program on a regular TV set.
