Re: New 'Phase 4' Guidelines
Re "obligation", here's Gabe Huck writing in 1997: On the first/eighth day the baptized people come together and the church thus assembled does eucharist. Even when this practice took on an oppressive tone ("Sunday obligation" understood as church legislation about being present ...

Re: "Responsorial" Gloria
I can recommend Dan Schutte's Mass of Christ the Savior, which can be sung either with a repeat refrain or straight through. Published by OCP (and available to listen to on Youtube) Be aware, if you use this, that it is known as the "My Little Pony" Mass. To give just one example: https:/...

Re: "Responsorial" Gloria
Rather than trying to use a Responsorial Gloria at all, why not use the Psallite Mass "At the Table of the Lord" Gloria? It's the one that at least seven dioceses in England and Wales (and many more elsewhere) recommended as the setting for parishes to use when we were changing to the new ...

Re: Extraordinary Rite News
I'd also want to say that Allen Morris has raised a deeper question, which is about how the rite evolves over time, and which developments may be considered authentic and which may not. A good example of this is the ritual of lighting a Unity Candle at weddings. For those who have not seen this, two...

Re: Extraordinary Rite News
At the same time it is a time to look again at whether those others of us, who are not following EF, do faithfully follow the liturgical norms that are in force. Many things have crept in which are 'norms, instructions, permissions and customs that precede the present Motu proprio' but not part of ...

Re: Extraordinary Rite News
There are parishes that have been given over to groups that will only celebrate according to 1962. How will they stand? And there is no mention of other sacraments ........? This article Art. 8. Previous norms, instructions, permissions, and customs that do not conform to the provisions of the pres...

Re: Extraordinary Rite News
Long overdue! And the outpouring of vitriol and hate only serves to demonstrate how necessary this measure was. Summorum Pontificum was intended to keep existing small groups on board, as a pastoral gesture. No more than that. It didn't give them permission to proselytise. It didn't give them permis...

Re: Communal Singing in Church
It has been suggested that our bishops might welcome the return of congregational singing but advise that congregation members should be masked when singing. Certainly, tests with professional singers have shown that emissions are greatly reduced by the wearing of masks, although aerosols are still ...

Re: New Translation of the Lectionary incoming
Thanks - now I know. However, I don't understand - if NRSV (Catholic, English edition) is considered the 'best' at the moment (and I have a very smart hardback edition which I use) why is the Lectionary using ESV and not NRSV? Initially the Congregation for Divine Worship rejected NRSV (although th...

Re: New Translation of the Lectionary incoming
Is the ESV the same as - or dfferent from - the NRSV Catholic Edition which is what I thought we were supposed to be using? If it is not the same how is it different? And if so, why is it different? They are completely different. Scholars tell us that NRSV (1989) is the best translation in widespre...

Re: Liturgy
Oops , every time people bend the rules or break them, we all suffer as a consequence. If people had consistently behaved themselves over the past 14 months, we'd be a lot further on in the process of exiting the restrictions than we actually are. The people who have tried to wiggle round, or have ...
