  • MOUNT CALVARY CATHOLIC CHURCH Baltimore, Maryland † Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter
    MOUNT CALVARY CATHOLIC CHURCH Baltimore, Maryland † Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter EIGHTEENTH SUNDAY AFTER TRINITY OCTOBER 15, 2017 • 10:00 A.M. Notes on Today’s Music Schubert’s setting of Psalm 23 was written for his friend Anna Frohlich, a singing teacher at the Vienna Conservatory, as an examination piece for her students in 1820. Although it was originally scored for a female choir, it is sometimes sung by men’s voices instead. We will use the piano because the accompaniment is idiomatic for that instrument and requires subtle shading of dynamics and phrasing impossible to reproduce on the organ. The style of this piece resembles the homespun liturgical music heard in Austrian small country churches of the period. At the beginning, a calm mood is established by the gentle triplets in the accompaniment, a kind of gentle water music evoking still waters and green pastures. Listen for the mysterious and dark section depicting the valley of the shadow of death. Written in a lower vocal range, it depicts the only moment of drama and doubt before the music returns to the assurance and faith of the beginning. Love bade me welcome was written in 1911 by English composer Vaughan Williams as one of his “Five mystical songs.” The text is by the early 17th century Anglican priest George Herbert, one of the devotional English writers known as the metaphysical poets. The poem depicts the soul who is invited to the heavenly banquet by Love (Christ) but who draws back because of his sense of unworthiness.

  • Footwashings from Canon Perrizo
    Footwashings from Canon Perrizo By Canon Faith C. Perrizo March 3, 2012 The Slow Work of God Above all, trust in the slow work of God. We are, quite naturally, Impatient in everything to reach the end Without delay. We should like to skip the intermediate stages. We are impatient of being on the way To something unknown, Something new And yet it is the law of all progress That it is made by passing through Some stages of instability – And that it may take a very long time. And so I think it is with you. Your ideas mature gradually – Let them grow. Let them shape themselves, Without undue haste. Don’t try to force them on, As though you could be today What time (that is to say, grace and circumstance Acting on you own good will) Will make you tomorrow. Only God could say what this new spirit Gradually forming within you will be. Give Our Lord the benefit of believing That His hand is leading you, And accept the anxiety of feeling yourself in suspense And incomplete. ‐‐Pierre Teilhard de Chardin ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ You are my beloved, my little one! I have created you I have chosen you And so you are You are a competent, intelligent, compassionate, wise woman Through me and with me all things are possible Trust ‐ come abide with me Rest for a while in my embrace Tomorrow we will celebrate the wonder and joy of all you are becoming Tomorrow you will know love, my little one For now Teach as you have been taught Preach my word Share my message of hope and love with all you meet Heal others as you have been healed Break bread and share wine Celebrate Come, my little one, my beloved Arise and follow me.

  • Former Episcopalian Mount Calvary Parishioners Received Into Catholic Church
    Former Episcopalian Mount Calvary parishioners received into Catholic Church By George P. Matysek Jr. [email protected] When Father Jeffrey Steenson laid his hands on Veronica Moore and gently crossed her forehead with holy oil during a special Jan. 22 Mass at Mount Calvary Church in Baltimore, tears flowed freely down Moore’s cheeks. An Episcopalian her entire life, Moore was received and confirmed into the Catholic Church and was joined by 33 fellow Mount Calvary parishioners who knelt before Father Steenson one by one to do the same. Several others in the formerly Episcopalian parish were also reconciled to the Catholic Church at or prior to the liturgy, bringing the total number of those brought into full communion to 42. “I felt it was the right thing to do to go back home to the Catholic Church,” said Moore, who still had tears in her eyes following a lengthy liturgy that featured solemn chant and jubilant organ music. “I feel a great sense of joy.” Mount Calvary has had a 169-year history with the Anglican Church. In October, 2010, the parish’s vestry unanimously voted to leave the Episcopal Church and become a Catholic parish that makes use of the Catholic “Anglican-use” liturgy – maintaining elements of Anglican worship and tradition. The parishioners were the first group of Americans to be received into full communion with the Roman Catholic Church through the newly established Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter, an ecclesiastical structure created by Pope Benedict XVI to make it easier to welcome former Episcopalians into the Catholic Church.

  • “Zeal for Thy House Consumes Me.” Psalm 69:10
    “Zeal for thy house consumes me.” Psalm 69:10 The 2018 Bishop’s Appeal P.O. Box 4301 Houston, Texas 77210 346.247.2208 | [email protected] ordinariate.net/bishops-appeal Feb. 1, 2018 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, As I refect on the growth of the Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter over last year, I recall the words of Psalm 69: “Zeal for thy house consumes me.” During the past 12 months, our mission diocese established new communities in Kentucky, Georgia, and Southern California. We launched intensive formation programs for more than 20 candidates studying for the diaconate and priesthood. We received two new seminarians, and I ordained the Ordinariate’s frst celibate seminarian a priest. The photo above is from the consecration of Mount Calvary Church in Baltimore — one of two churches consecrated as Catholic churches last year. We hosted “Discernment Days” for 13 young men considering a call to holy orders. We welcomed women religious into the Ordinariate, when the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist began formal ministries within our diocese. Our priests and deacons gathered for prayer, fraternity, and business during a week-long assembly in Los Angeles. These examples of seemingly inextinguishable activity give witness to the remarkable zeal of the Ordinariate’s faithful and clergy. Zeal indeed consumes us, as we work hard to strengthen our communities, provide solid formation for our future priests, and bolster the structural and administrative foundation for our diocese to support our Parishes and clergy into the future. “Zeal for thy house consumes me” is the theme of our 2018 Bishop’s Appeal, through which we can carry forth our enthusiasm for inviting new members into full Catholic communion; for cultivating more vocations to the priesthood and religious life; for growing our Parishes; and for further integrating our Ordinariate into the life of the Catholic Church.

  • Twelve Years Among the Colored People. a Record of the Work of Mount Calvary Chapel of S. Mary the Virgin, Baltimore
    (ev.G.B.Pe^y. regulated minds, the case was very different -with the emo- tional but ignorant blacks, who had only just been emanci- pated from a state of slavery, and were as yet utterly unpre- pared by education or training to follow or understand the. formal set discourses of the Evangelical pulpit. Hence the surroundings called not only for elasticity in the services and the method of conducting them, but also for objective teaching that should act as the schoolmaster to bring them to Christ. Mr. Perry speaks out boldly and intelligently on the "color line." As a Northerner, he had not been out of reach of race-prejudices. He had seen in the New England churches the far-off galleries reserved for the negroes, and had watched them filing up to the Altar to receive the Holy Communion " after ' those in gold rings and goodly apparel ' had been first served at the Lord's Table." It was, therefore, nothing new to him to see the line of demarcation drawn so rigidly between the whites and the blacks in the South. But what did im- press him was that, though an "unreformed Northerner, and an advocate of the colored man," he found quite as much genuine attachment to the colored man in the South as in the North. If in the South there be a more deep-seated feeling about the negro's social equality, right of suffrage, and his mingling with white people in schools, hotels, and public conveyances, there is much less feeling of personal aversion to him on account of color than in the North.
