The Solemnity of the Nativity of the Lord Christ Cathedral Garden The Solemnity of the Nativity of the Lord Christ Cathedral Garden Grove, California 1 Prelude Carols and Carillon Carol Joseph was an Old Man The Cherry Tree Carol Carillon Prelude Maria Wiegenlied Max Reger arr. Roy Kroezen from: Schlichte Weisen, Op. 76 no. 52 Carol God Rest You Merry Gentlemen God Rest Ye Merry God rest you merry, gentlemen, let nothing you dismay, For Jesus Christ our Savior was born upon this day; To save us all from Satan's power when we were gone astray. O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy; O tidings of comfort and joy. From God our heavenly Father a blessèd angel came; And unto certain shepherds brought tidings of the same; How that in Bethlehem was born the Son of God by name. O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy; O tidings of comfort and joy. The shepherds at those tidings rejoicèd much in mind, And left their flocks a-feeding in tempest, storm and wind, And went to Bethlehem straight’way this blessèd Babe to find. O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy; O tidings of comfort and joy. But when to Bethlehem they came where at this infant lay, They found Him in a manger where oxen feed on hay; His mother Mary kneeling unto the Lord did pray. O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy; O tidings of comfort and joy. Now to the Lord sing praises all you within this place, And with true love and brotherhood each other now embrace; This holy tide of Christmas all others doth deface, O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy; O tidings of comfort and joy. Christmas 2 Carillon Prelude Les Bergers Oliver Messiaen arr. Gideon Bodden “The Shepherds” from La Nativité du Seigneur Choral Prelude What Child is This? Arranged by Grant Cochran What child is this who, laid to rest, On Mary’s lap is sleeping, Whom angels greet with anthems sweet While shepherds watch are keeping? This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing: Haste, haste to bring him laud, The Babe, the Son of Mary! Why lies he in such mean estate Where ox and ass are feeding? Good Christian fear: for sinners here The silent Word is pleading. So bring him incense, gold and myrrh; Come, peasant, king to own him. The King of Kings salvation brings: Let loving hearts enthrone him. 3 Carillon Prelude Adeste Fideles Franz Liszt arr. Gideon Bodden Weihnachtsbaum S. 186 Choral Prelude This Christmastide Donald Fraser Green and silver, red and gold, and a story born of old Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide. Holly, ivy, mistletoe, and the gently falling snow Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide. From a simple ox's stall came the greatest gift of all Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide. Children sing of peace and joy at the birth of one small boy Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide. Let the bells ring loud and clear, ring out now for all to hear Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide. Trumpets sound and voices raises in an endless stream of praise Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide. Green and silver, red and gold, and a story born of old Peace and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide. Organ Voluntary Of the Father’s Love Begotten Wilbur Held 4 Christmas Proclamation of the Birth of Christ From the Roman Martyrology Ancient Christian scholars used Sacred Scripture, histories and the best calendars available at the time to calculate the age of the world and the dates of prominent events. Although current evidence often differs from the ancient record, the Christmas Proclamation, a part of the Roman Martyrology declares the Incarnation of Christ as the central moment of human history. The twenty-fifth day of December, when ages beyond number had run their course from the creation of the world, when God in the beginning created heaven and earth, and formed man in his own likeness; when century upon century had passed since the Almighty set his bow in the clouds after the Great Flood, as a sign of covenant and peace; in the twenty-first century since Abraham, our father in faith, came out of the Ur of the Chaldees; in the thirteenth century since the People of Israel were led by Moses in the Exodus from Egypt; around the thousandth year since David was anointed King; in the sixty-fifth week of the prophecy of Daniel; in the one hundred and ninety-fourth Olympiad, in the year seven hundred and fifty-two since the foundation of the City of Rome, in the forty-second year of the reign of Caesar Octavian Augustus, the whole world being at peace, JESUS CHRIST, eternal God and Son of the eternal Father, desiring to consecrate the world by his most loving presence, was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and when nine months had passed since his conception, was born of the Virgin Mary in Bethlehem of Judah and was made man: The Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ according to the flesh.

    ORDER OF CELEBRATION FOR Solemnity of Pentecost May 23, 2021 *If you are worshipping with us from home, you are invited to sing the hymns. If you are with us at church, please refrain from singing out loud for everyone’s safety. The Introductory Rites OPENING HYMN Come, Holy Spirit, Wind and Fire Text by Alan J. Hommerding and Music by Henry F. Hemy Tune: ST CATHERINE GLORIA Mass for the People of God Chepponis The Liturgy of the Word FIRST READING Acts 2:1-11 When the time for Pentecost was fulfilled, they were all in one place together. And suddenly there came from the sky a noise like a strong driving wind, and it filled the entire house in which they were. Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim. Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven staying in Jerusalem. At this sound, they gathered in a large crowd, but they were confused because each one heard them speaking in his own language. They were astounded, and in amazement they asked, “Are not all these people who are speaking Galileans? Then how does each of us hear them in his native language? We are Parthians, Medes, and Elamites, inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya near Cyrene, as well as travelers from Rome, both Jews and converts to Judaism, Cretans and Arabs, yet we hear them speaking in our own tongues of the mighty acts of God.” PSALM Psalm 104 Lisicky SECOND READING 1 Corinthians 12:3b-7, 12-13 Brothers and sisters: No one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

In fact, throughout the course of the year the Church unfolds the entire mystery of Christ and observes the birthdays of the Saints. Universal Norms on the Liturgical Year and the General Roman Calendar [UNLYC], no. 1 LITURGICAL DAYS 1. Each day is made holy through the celebration of the Liturgy by the People of God. 2.

  • Solemnity of Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord Today We Celebrate the Central Mystery of Our Christian Faith, the Re
    Solemnity of Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord Today we celebrate the central mystery of our Christian faith, the resurrection of Jesus and his triumph over the power of death. Acts 10:34. 37-43 Peter speaks to the household members of the Roman centurion Cornelius. He gives an outline of the story of Jesus and emphasises that his preaching is trustworthy as he has experienced the risen Jesus for himself. Colossians 3:1-4 Our life as Christians should be centred on the person of the risen Christ, and this should influence the way we think and behave. Alternative Second Reading 1 Corinthians 5:6-8 Jesus Christ is the Lamb of God, our Passover. Now is the time for us to acknowledge this gratefully and live truly as Jesus’ disciples. John 20:1-9 Mary Magdalene finds the tomb of Jesus open and empty, and goes to inform Peter and the disciple Jesus loved. They visit the grave but only the beloved disciple understands what has happened. Reflection For us, Easter is the greatest feast of all. This is the day Jesus broke the chains of death and rose in triumph from the grave. This is truly the ‘Day of the Lord.’ But it is also our day, for Jesus shares with us the fruits of his victory. Let us open our hearts to the joy of this great day. The reading from the Acts of the Apostles is part of an early sermon that Peter gave. In it he summarises the ministry of Jesus, which culminated in his death.

This Calendar is used by authors of ordines and other liturgical aids published to foster the celebration of the liturgy in our country. The Calendar is based upon the General Roman Calendar, promulgated by Pope Saint Paul VI on February 14, 1969, subsequently amended by the Holy See, and the Proper Calendar for the Dioceses of the United States of America, approved by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.1 This Calendar has been updated to reflect the names and titles of the various liturgical days in conformity with the Roman Missal, Third Edition. The General Instruction of the Roman Missal reminds us that in the cycles of readings and prayers proclaimed throughout the year in the sacred liturgy “the mysteries of redemption are celebrated so as to be in some way made present.” Thus may each celebration of the Holy Eucharist which is served by this Calendar be for the Church in the United States of America “the high point both of the action by which God sanctifies the world in Christ and of the worship that the human race offers to the Father, adoring him through Christ, the Son of God, in the Holy Spirit.”2 Sincerely in Christ, Rev.
