Re: Fit for purpose

I think so. It's exactly what it says, a translation and so will always be flawed to one degree or another. I'm comfy with it. Being a convert from the Church in Wales where they were using the blue Holy Eucharist book at the time of my conversion, the language is very familiar and has a beauty. I a...

Beatification

I watched the Beatification Liturgy on the Sky Arts channel. The liturgy was almost entirely without interuption or unneccessary commentary. I though that The Holy Father looked very, VERY tired. The choir was less robust that I've been use to hearing from St P.'s; very nice indeed. Historically I'v...

Re: Renewal of Baptismal promises on Easter Day

We prefer With Joy You Shall Draw Water (Bob Hurd) since it contains the verse refering to
I saw water flowing from the side of God's own Temple,
from the wounded heart of Jesus who died for us.

We like Water of Life too, using that on other occasions.

All delicious stuff!

Re: Renewal of Baptismal promises on Easter Day

I can only speak for sunny Abergavenny-on-Sea, but we've always renewed baptismal vows and had sprinkling.

Re: Holy Week Music Programme

That's a cracking line-up there Phil. Stainer's "God so Loved the World" is delicious, I often think that while its bedding deep within Stainer's "The Crucifixion" implies that it ought solely during Holy Week, on its Jn 3:16-18 scriptural text merits it doesn't have to be limite...

Re: Printing out words....! (of Mass Parts!)

Hi DNBA. To the best of my knowledge it's fine to reproduce the new translation text, I usually add the following: Excerpts from the English translation and chants of The Roman Missal © 2010 International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation. All rights reserved. I think that it was via ...

Re: Holy Thursday eve - penitential rite

Sensible thoughts and advice folks. As you say, there is no specific instruction that suggests its omission.

Thanks,

Re: Bishops fix date for ending old music settings

Personally I like the new translation, on the whole, and the return of so many scriptural references enriches the experience for me.

Holy Thursday eve - penitential rite

Hello everyone.
Should there be a penitential rite at the Eveninig Mass on Holy Thursday? There's nothing in the missal to suggest its inclusion or exclusion.
Thanks muchly.
Gwyn.
