  1. We’d be very glad if you could (a) post about the new blog and (b) link to it.

    In particular, we’d be glad if you could bring to the attention of your readers the news that there will be a Traditional Latin Mass for the Holy Year of St. Paul in St. Paul’s Church, Emo, Co. Laois, Ireland, on Saturday, 30th August, 2008, for which the Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin has granted, under the usual conditions, the Plenary Indulgence for the Pauline Holy Year.

    Another post that might be interested is a report of our recent walking pilgrimage for vocations:

  2. Thank you for recording and posting this. It is very helpful. I am working on a booklet for II Vespers of the BVM from the Liber Usualis and was relieved to see that my order matched what you sang.

    Two things:
    1) Why did you only sing the incipit for the antiphons before each psalm and the whole thing after. I thought it was to be sung once through before and once after, the chopping of the antiphon in the LU being only a shorthand reminder to save space on typesetting.

    2) I'd like to sing this in the chapel at my school on November 19, a traditional feast of Our Lady of Divine Providence but not on the older or newer Roman calendar. I know a votive mass can be offered in place of a proper mass, but can vespers of the BVM similarly displace the proper vespers?

    Thanks.
