THIRTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME • NOVEMBER 8, 2020

New hymnals for Holy Ghost

We are not yet able to start singing as a congregation, but we’re making preparations for that day, including the introduction of the Adoremus Hymnal, published by Ignatius Press. Sacred music can lift us heavenward, and this hymnal contains a superb repertoire of traditional hymns that are beautiful and musically accessible.

The Adoremus Hymnal consists of three major sections: a detailed order of Mass, numerous musical settings of the ordinary (e.g., Kyrie and Lamb of God), and lastly, an excellent selection of hymns. It will enhance the beauty of our worship and inspire us to offer our Lord the praise he so richly deserves.

To learn more about the new hymnal and how you can donate copies in honor of or in memory of loved ones, visit our website: https://holyghostknoxville.org/new-hymnals/ or contact the parish office at 865-522-2205.
