Usually I am in sympathy (or empathy) with your posts, but give me a McD sausage sandwich every time. Chorizo-nasty foreign muck! Red wine is alright tho! :lol:

One way around this is to use the hymnbooks which the majority of churches have. If relatives want a leaflet (with the almost obligatory photo of the deceased with a pint in his/her hand) then just put the hymn numbers in and use the books. On the other hand it isn't rocket science to put the author...

As mcb said, there was no feedback at all on the Marian addition to Mass on Sunday. After 33 years of ministry I really didn't expect any because the only 'feedback' that tends to come our way is 'complaint' that we haven't done something or that we've done something that has never been done before ...

'Thinking about it' might just mean referring the question to the management at my place of worship, Since I might just be that management, can I add a recently discovered fact to the discussion (which does not prejudice any decision that may have to be made at a later date concerning the use of Ma...

I would wish to make three comments on this excellent thread: 1. We belong to the Roman Rite which has emerged both by tradition and now also by 'law' as the way of celebrating the liturgy for those who are in communion with the Pope and their diocesan Bishop and who have not been recognised by Rome...

Perhaps there is not the presumed contradiction between "on earth peace to men of good will" and "on earth peace (and) good will to men"(eudokias or eudokia), since all "good will" comes from God, even that which is then "passed on" to others through people of...

Agree completely sidvicius! In my innocence I presumed that this would already have been done and also the new General Instruction on the Roman Missal read and digested.

Commentary on the Mass

Scholastica, a good basic commentary which I have always found useful for talks on the Mass is 'The Mass' by Lucien Deiss published by The Liturgical Press, Collegeville, Minnesota. ISBN 0-8146-2058-2. If you can't get a copy let me know and I'll send you one.

Re: breaking of bread

Please advise of the relevant rubric. I can understand where this priest is coming from and maybe they do this in Africa? Does Rome know I wonder? The latest statement on this is to be found in the document, Redemptionis Sacramentum published by the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Disciplin...

Re: Core repertoire- Beatitudes

If we are going to sing the Beatitudes, please can they be Beatitudes, not Happitudes. In the 1966 original English edition of The Jerusalem Bible , Fr. Alex Jones used the word 'happy' rather than 'blessed' in the Beatitudes (Matt. 5:1-12). In The New Jerusalem Bible which was published about 1985...

Re: Pius X

Does anyone know who actually wrote "Among the concerns..." - the motu proprio of 1903? Yes, yes - I know it was "Fr Sing-the-Mass" - but who was he? The possible hidden author was one Angelo dei Santi SJ (perhaps a nom de plume of Pope Pius X himself when he was Patriarch of Venice). A document fr...

Getting myself in knots here – what was I trying to say? I think I know exactly what you mean Merseysider. Same thing happens to clergy who are expected to, as you say, 'spoonfeed' people even if they don't possess the particular charism needed. From my own practical experience I would say a numb...

In the cold light of morning (Good morning Dot!) and corrected privately by mcb I notice that 'maioram' (as in 'maioram Dei gloriam') should be spelt 'maiorem'. :oops:
My excuse is that my spell-check doesn't do Latin!
