  • The Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary Patronal Feast Day of the United States of America December 8, 2020
    1 The Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary Patronal Feast day of the United States of America December 8, 2020 Through her Immaculate Conception, God preserved Mary from the stain of original sin, making her all-pure and all holy—prepared, therefore, to be the Mother of the Savior. But this feast also reveals what God makes possible for all of us by grace: a healed humanity, “holy and without blemish.” We look to Immaculate Mary, awed by her singular privilege, confident that she intercedes for us so that we can share in her holiness, destined “for the praise of his glory.” (us.magnificat.net) Entrance Song 2 Gloria 3 Collect O God, who by the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin prepared a worthy dwelling for your Son, grant, we pray, that, as you preserved her from every stain by the virtue of the Death of your Son, which you foresaw, so, through her intercession, we, too, may be cleansed and admitted to your presence. Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. First Reading Genesis 3:9-15, 20 After the man, Adam, had eaten of the tree, the LORD God called to the man and asked him, “Where are you?” He answered, “I heard you in the garden; but I was afraid, because I was naked, so I hid myself.” Then he asked, “Who told you that you were naked? You have eaten, then, from the tree of which I had forbidden you to eat!” The man replied, “The woman whom you put here with meC she gave me fruit from the tree, and so I ate it.” The LORD God then asked the woman, “Why did you do such a thing?” The woman answered, “The serpent tricked me into it, so I ate it.” Then the LORD God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, you shall be banned from all the animals and from all the wild creatures; on your belly shall you crawl, and dirt shall you eat all the days of your life.

  • Liturgy of Mary a Holy Hour
    Liturgy of Mary A Holy Hour Prayer Focus: In this liturgy we reflect on the ever expanding motherhood of Mary. The journey takes us through the significant milestones of her life until she becomes mother of us all. Suggested Hymns for Gathering: Contemporary: Here I am (Psalm 40) (Gather 47); Canticle of the Turning (Gather 376); Let God’s dream be born (As One voice 30/2); Hail Mary, full of Grace (Alleluia Aotearoa 58); Our Lady of the Southern Cross (WYD website www.wyd2008.org ) Traditional: Immaculate Mary; Mary Immaculate Star of the Morning; Mo Maria 19 Welcome and Introduction Hymn or music Opening Prayer Ever living God, your people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. May Mary’s Magnificat, the gift of a mother’s love, be the joy of your people. May her hope and her faithfulness kindle courage in our hearts. May her humble response draw your Spirit to rest anew upon us all. We ask this in the name of Jesus, born of a Virgin and Son of God. Amen. Luke 1:26-38 Let it be with me according to your word. (PAUSE) Reflection (Pause after every point) • Mary, Gabriel journeyed from heaven to earth to herald the beginning of your journey to motherhood of all people. Your strength and openness to God’s will allowed you to make such a radical act of faith. • The Magi journeyed from the East to bring their gifts to your firstborn son. Did you have any inkling of the joys and sorrows that would colour your lives? • Mary, in all the journeys of your life with Jesus you kept faith with the promise God made to you.

    An Anthology of Hymns from The Catholic Hymnal Eucharistic Hymns Benediction Hymns Hymns to Mary The Catholic Hymnal Ellen Doll Jones & Noel Jones, Editors WWW.THECATHOLICHYMNAL.COM THE CATHOLIC HYMNAL PROJECT™ Under Development PUBLISHED Eucharistic Hymns Hymns To Mary An Anthology of Hymns from The Catholic Hymnal Eucharistic Hymns Benediction Hymns Hymns To Mary Blank pages included to eliminate page turns by organists and singers. www.thecatholichymnal.com ©2009 Frog Music Press www.frogmusic.com The Catholic Hymnal 201 CR 432, Englewood, TN 37329 regorian Chant formed the first hymns. Chant has two forms, syllabic and melismatic. Some of the earliest hymns are chants, set to a repeating, mainly syllabic text, with a bit of melisma thrown in. Examples include Adoro Te De- Gvote and Jesu Dulcis Memoria. As the use of local language for devotions outside of Mass became popular, writers, com- posers and eventually publishers rose to the challenge. English hymns were commonly published as text only, no music, in the mid to late 1800’s. By the early 1900’s, published hymn books which combined text and music were popular. By studying these old hymn books, one can trace the development as hymns as we know them today - from single line chant; to chant melodies harmonized in block harmony; and finally, four vocal parts written on two staves. “Melody only” versions were often published for the congregation, but it was also common to print “SA,” two part hymnals. In this hymnal you will find common versions of “Bring Flowers Of The Rarest,” “ Mother, Dearest,” and “Mother Dear, O Pray For Me,” which were written for two parts (female voices) with a simple Alberti Bass accompaniment in the left hand.
