The Conventual Mass Among those Masses celebrated by some communities, moreover, the conventual Mass, which is a part of the daily Office, has a particular place. Although such Masses do not have a special form of celebration, it is nevertheless most proper that they be celebrated with singing, especially with the full participation of all members of the community... In these Masses, therefore, individuals should exercise the office proper to the Order or ministry they have received. It is appropriate, therefore, that all the priests who are not bound to celebrate individually for the pastoral benefit of the faithful concelebrate at the conventual or community Mass insofar as it is possible. In addition, all priests belonging to the community who are obliged, as a matter of duty, to celebrate individually for the pastoral benefit of the faithful may also on the same day concelebrate at the conventual or community Mass. For it is preferable that priests who are present at a Eucharistic celebration, unless excused for a good reason, should as a rule exercise the office proper to their Order and hence take part as concelebrants, wearing the sacred vestments. Otherwise, they wear their proper choir dress …. General Instruction on the Roman Missal, n. 114.

Alleluia or Verse before the Gospel The Alleluia or the verse before the gospel must be sung ,and during it all stand. It is not to be sung only by the cantor who intones it or by the choir, but by the whole congregation together. General Instruction on the Lectionary, n. 23

Appendix: Proclamation of the Lord’s Birth (Dec 24)

If celebrated at Morning Prayer, the Proclamation comes after the Final Prayer, the blessing being omitted. The cantor goes to the pulpit and immediately begins with the announcement of the following day. The community remain standing in choir. [Eight days before the Kalends of January, seventh day of the lunar month.] Innumerable ages having passed since the creation of the world, when in the beginning God created heaven and earth and formed mankind after his own image; many centuries after the flood, when the Most High placed his rainbow in the heavens as a sign of peace and of the covenant; twenty-one centuries after the going forth of Abraham, our father in faith, from Ur of the Chaldees; thirteen centuries from the exodus of the people of Israel out of Egypt, led by Moses; about one thousand years from the anointing of David as King; in the sixty-fifth week according to the prophecy of Daniel; in the one hundred and ninety-fourth Olympiad; in the year seven hundred and fifty-two from the founding of the city of Rome; in the forty-second year of the rule of Caesar Octavian Augustus; when the whole world was at peace: Jesus Christ, eternal God and Son of the eternal Father, being pleased to hallow the world by His most gracious coming, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit, and nine months having passed since His conception, having become Man, was born at Bethlehem in Judah of the Virgin Mary. Here all kneel. At a sign from the prior, all rise and the reader continues: The Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ according to the flesh. The cantor may continue with the Martyrology for the day:

[At Rome, the commemoration of Saint Anastasia, a martyr of Sirmium in Hungary. Also at Rome, in the cemetery of Apronianus on the Latin Way, the martyr, Saint Eugenia. Also at Rome on the Latin Way, the martyrs, Saints Basil and Jovinian. At Cracow in Poland, Saint Adalbert Adam Chmielowski, a religious, an outstanding artist, who devoted himself to the poor, striving to assist them in all ways, and who founded Congregations of Brothers and Sisters of the Third Order of Saint Francis for the service of the poor.]

V. Precious in the eyes of the Lord R. Is the death of his faithful.

Short Reading Heb 1: 8-12 Of the angels he says: "He makes his angels winds and his ministers a fiery flame"; but of the Son: "Your throne, O God, stands forever and ever; and a righteous sceptre is the sceptre of your kingdom. You loved justice and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, anointed you with the oil of gladness above your companions"; and: "At the beginning, O Lord, you established the earth, and the heavens are the works of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; and they will all 42

grow old like a garment. You will roll them up like a cloak, and like a garment they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will have no end." The word of the Lord. R. Thanks be to God. [Rom 1: 1-3, 5-6 may be used as an alternative.] Then the prior or hebdomadarian says the following prayer, without "Let us pray" :

May Holy Mary and all the saints intercede for us before the Lord, that we may be worthy to be helped and saved by Him who lives and reigns for ever and ever. R. Amen.

[Alternative prayers will be found in the Roman Martyrology (2004)]

May the Lord bless us, and keep us from all evil, and bring us to everlasting life. And may the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. R. Amen.

V. Go in the peace of Christ. R. Thanks be to God.
