Psalm 130 Refrain: My soul waits for the Lord. 1 Out of the depths have I cried to you, O Lord; ♦ Lord, hear my voice; let your ears consider well the voice of my supplication. ♦ 2 If you, Lord, were to mark what is done amiss, O Lord, who could stand? ♦ 3 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you shall be feared. R ♦ 4 I wait for the Lord; my soul waits for him; in his word is my hope. 5 My soul waits for the Lord, ♦ more than the night watch for the morning, more than the night watch for the morning. R ♦ 6 O Israel, wait for the Lord, for with the Lord there is mercy; ♦ 7 With him is plenteous redemption and he shall redeem Israel from all their sins. Refrain: My soul waits for the Lord. Father, we commend to your faithful love those who are crying from the depths; help them to watch and pray through their time of darkness, in sure hope of the dawn of your forgiveness and redemption; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Psalm 143 Refrain: Show me, O Lord, the way that I should walk in. 1 Hear my prayer, O Lord, ♦ and in your faithfulness give ear to my supplications; answer me in your righteousness. ♦ 2 Enter not into judgement with your servant, for in your sight shall no one living be justified. 3 For the enemy has pursued me, ♦ crushing my life to the ground, making me sit in darkness like those long dead.

  • Understanding When to Kneel, Sit and Stand at a Traditional Latin Mass
    UNDERSTANDING WHEN TO KNEEL, SIT AND STAND AT A TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS __________________________ A Short Essay on Mass Postures __________________________ by Richard Friend I. Introduction A Catholic assisting at a Traditional Latin Mass for the first time will most likely experience bewilderment and confusion as to when to kneel, sit and stand, for the postures that people observe at Traditional Latin Masses are so different from what he is accustomed to. To understand what people should really be doing at Mass is not always determinable from what people remember or from what people are presently doing. What is needed is an understanding of the nature of the liturgy itself, and then to act accordingly. When I began assisting at Traditional Latin Masses for the first time as an adult, I remember being utterly confused with Mass postures. People followed one order of postures for Low Mass, and a different one for Sung Mass. I recall my oldest son, then a small boy, being thoroughly amused with the frequent changes in people’s postures during Sung Mass, when we would go in rather short order from standing for the entrance procession, kneeling for the preparatory prayers, standing for the Gloria, sitting when the priest sat, rising again when he rose, sitting for the epistle, gradual, alleluia, standing for the Gospel, sitting for the epistle in English, rising for the Gospel in English, sitting for the sermon, rising for the Credo, genuflecting together with the priest, sitting when the priest sat while the choir sang the Credo, kneeling when the choir reached Et incarnatus est etc.

  • The Rites of Holy Week
    THE RITES OF HOLY WEEK • CEREMONIES • PREPARATIONS • MUSIC • COMMENTARY By FREDERICK R. McMANUS Priest of the Archdiocese of Boston 1956 SAINT ANTHONY GUILD PRESS PATERSON, NEW JERSEY Copyright, 1956, by Frederick R. McManus Nihil obstat ALFRED R. JULIEN, J.C. D. Censor Lib1·or111n Imprimatur t RICHARD J. CUSHING A1·chbishop of Boston Boston, February 16, 1956 PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA INTRODUCTION ANCTITY is the purpose of the "new Holy Week." The news S accounts have been concerned with the radical changes, the upset of traditional practices, and the technical details of the re­ stored Holy Week services, but the real issue in the reform is the development of true holiness in the members of Christ's Church. This is the expectation of Pope Pius XII, as expressed personally by him. It is insisted upon repeatedly in the official language of the new laws - the goal is simple: that the faithful may take part in the most sacred week of the year "more easily, more devoutly, and more fruitfully." Certainly the changes now commanded ,by the Apostolic See are extraordinary, particularly since they come after nearly four centuries of little liturgical development. This is especially true of the different times set for the principal services. On Holy Thursday the solemn evening Mass now becomes a clearer and more evident memorial of the Last Supper of the Lord on the night before He suffered. On Good Friday, when Holy Mass is not offered, the liturgical service is placed at three o'clock in the afternoon, or later, since three o'clock is the "ninth hour" of the Gospel accounts of our Lord's Crucifixion.

  • Passion Sunday Year B
    The Anglican Diocese of Willochra A Service of Holy Communion Page 1 of 12 Page 2 of 12 A LITURGY FOR THE SUNDAY OF THE PASSION (PALM SUNDAY) LITURGICAL NOTES Holy Week Within the framework of the Lenten season, the last week stands out for special attention, not simply because it contains Maundy Thursday and Good Friday, but because the whole week is a commemoration and celebration of our Lord’s Passion. This week of the Passion is inaugurated on Passion Sunday (Palm Sunday or 6th To mark out this week as one of special solemnity, the decoration of the liturgical space might well mark the change by using passion red as the colour. A large cross may be placed centrally, for this is the Week of the Cross. Branches and Palm fronds may be left in the church from the Sunday through to Maundy Thursday, when they should be removed. Sunday of Lent) with the reading of the Passion Gospel which sets the tone for the rest of the week. In Holy Week we need to be particularly careful not to try and ‘re-enact’ the events of the days before the death of Jesus. Liturgy is about celebration and commemoration rather than re-enactment. The careful and simple use of our symbols can serve this. The cross should be large and preferably wooden; branches, palm fronds or crosses need to be of an adequate size; processions need to go from one place to another. The Eucharist, the celebration of Christ’s saving death, is the primary focus of our liturgies for the week.

  • Faith Fact a Lenten Tradition: Veiling the Cross for Passiontide
    Faith Fact A Lenten Tradition: Veiling the Cross for Passiontide By Laura Jean Rabiipour Towards the end of Lent, you may notice purple cloths draped over the crucifixes, statues, and saint images in our parish church. In some churches, these items may be removed from the sanctuary altogether. This old custom of veiling religious images is a way of focusing on the penitential aspect of this liturgical season. It reminds us in a visual way that our faith in all its glory is made possible only through the work of Christ in his suffering and death on the cross. When we cover or remove these holy and sacred images that we are so accustomed to, we are starkly confronted and reminded in a poignant way of all that Christ has won for us. The tradition is often practiced during the last two weeks before Easter, starting on Passion Sunday (now called the fifth Sunday of Lent) and ending on Good Friday. This time period is known on the old liturgical calendar as Passiontide. Even though this period is no longer officially called by this name, the tradition is still practiced in many places. Then, as in a dramatic unveiling, the holy images are again revealed for the Easter Vigil to mark the end of the penitential season. The joy of the Easter season and the hope of the Resurrection then come to the forefront. Temporarily veiling the crosses and religious images in the penitential color of Lent is a beautiful custom that helps us to reflect on the deeper theological meaning of the liturgical season.

Guerric of Igny When Jesus entered Jerusalem like a triumphant conqueror and many were astonished at the majesty of his bearing. But when, only a short time after this, he entered his passion his appearance was ignoble and he was an object of derision. If today’s procession is considered together with the Lord’s passion, we see Jesus as sublime and glorious and simultaneously as lowly and suffering. The procession makes us think of the honor a king receives, whereas the passion reminds us of the punishments inflicted on criminals. Apply this to your own ways of receiving Jesus.

  • Passion Sunday Lent V Sermon by Bishop Michael Hawkins by the Right Reverend Michael W. Hawkins Bishop of Saskatchewan for F
    Passion Sunday Lent V Sermon by Bishop Michael Hawkins By the Right Reverend Michael W. Hawkins Bishop of Saskatchewan For freedom Christ has set us free; stand fast therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. You are free children, not bound servants. In Jesus Christ, God has redeemed you from slavery and adopted you as his children. This is the Gospel of the Incarnation, Death and Resurrection of the Son of God. The Good News is that God - Jesus the Son - has become our brother in the flesh, that we might become the children of his Father in the Spirit. And he has ransomed and redeemed us from slavery to sin and death, that we might be free. We, then, who were wicked servants, have become redeemed children, who have received the liberation of forgiveness and eternal life. From Passion Sunday Lent V 2002 1 Passion Sunday Lent V Sermon by Bishop Michael Hawkins Jesus Christ has liberated us from sin and death. We have been freed from the slavery of dead works to serve the living God. Now, there is so much confusion and wrong thinking in the world about true freedom, and these errors constantly creep into the Church and into our souls. We get suckered into worldly conformity and thinking, and we mistake self-promotion as greatness, and slavery to our own opinions and lusts for freedom. But, the Bible says to us as Christians, “it shall not be so among you”. Christian freedom does not mean the free reign of personal opinion and selfish lust.

    ST. JOSEPH CHURCH An Apostolate of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest Canon Glenn Gardner, Rector PASSION SUNDAY April 7, A.D. 2019 - April 14 A.D. 2019 LATIN MASS TIMES Sunday 11:00 a.m. Monday through Saturday 8:00 a.m. Wednesday 6:00 p.m. Confessions 30 minutes before each mass From the Rector… There is only one reason: Love! Love for the Father and love for mankind, whom He wants to reconcile with the Father. Only infinite love can explain the sufferings and humiliation accepted by Jesus. While His divinity hides itself, and almost seems to abandon Him, Jesus who is both human and divine, suffers in His human nature. Do- ing so, Jesus has given meaning to human suffering, He has made it meritorious: if accepted for the love of God and offered up for the salvation of the world. Jesus is the innocent victim, and He attains the high point of His mission into the world when it is His hour for which He longed. As we look at Jesus on the cross we confront the mystery of suffering and death and the paradox that suffering with Jesus leads to glory and happiness. Our task now is to follow Him during Holy Week. He says, “If you wish to be my disciple. Take up your cross daily and follow me.” These words are addressed to you and me. In the Acts of the Apostles (5:41) it is said that the Apos- tles rejoiced that they could suffer something for Jesus. They found joy in their sufferings because they saw mean- ing in it.
