Relevant Reflections from “Sacramentum Caritatis.”

“To the historian their decisions are disgusting nonsense that people of my kind want simply to ignore.” — Fr. Adrian Fortescue (1919)

“…pour forth Thy mercy upon us, to take away from us those things which our conscience feareth…”

One musical advantage for the priest celebrating the Ordinary Form is that he can play an active role leading the music, yet still celebrate Mass.

The singers know their individual contribution is essential.

If your priest requires the congregation sing the “Alleluia,” there’s a nice way to do this.

“O God, Who dost chiefly manifest Thy power in forbearance and mercy…”

Reflections from Dr. Jennifer Donelson at Sacra Liturgia UK
What did the saints say about celebrating the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass facing East?
The Summer Sacred Music Workshop 2016 is finally here!

Like all the books we release, this extremely rare hymnal was previously unavailable until we scanned and uploaded it.

Father told me that he felt extremely awkward standing in the sanctuary for two minutes while the congregation did nothing but look at him.

How can we renew the liturgy with charity? We shouldn’t seek to win arguments on the liturgy.
