January 1 - B.V. Mary, Mother of God - Evening Prayer II

.

Enjoyed a wonderful EF Mass for the Octave of Christmas/Mary Mother of God today.  Starting to get my voice back finally, but it comes & goes.

This project has been most enjoyable, but I doubt I will be able to continue due to time constraints.  If I could find a way to stream live, maybe I could keep going.  I will at least finish the 4 week Psalter.

Merry Christmastide & a blessed New Year to all.

December 31 - B.V. Mary, Mother of God, Evening Prayer I

.

You may have caught Vespers for Mary, Mother of God with Pope Benedict XVI at St. Peter's Basilica on EWTN.  If so, you probably noticed a striking similarity between my recording & the EWTN broadcast, notably that the texts were largely the same.

Looking forward to Extraordinary From Mass at Holy Ghost in Knoxville at 1:30pm tomorrow.

Wishing you all a very Happy, Healthy, & Holy New Year!

December 27 - St. John the Apostle

.

I hope you all are having a wonderful Christmastide!  

Mercifully, this may be one of the last postings of Vespers.  It just takes too much time to record, edit, & post these videos.  If I could figure out how to stream it live, that might work.  We'll see.

Evening Prayer I for Sunday IV of Advent

.
I recorded Saturday Evening prayer (actually first Vespers for Sunday) ahead of time, but now when I try to edit the file, MovieMaker wants to delete parts of it at random.  Totally untenable, especially when I need to spend that time working on the Propers for today's Mass.  Sorry, may can fix it later.  God bless.

This evening's Gospel "O" Antiphon:

O Radiant Dawn, splendor of eternal light, sun of justice; come, shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death.

Still a little clogged up.  Apologies.

Tonight's O Antiphon:

O Key of David, O royal Power of Israel controlling at your will the gate of heaven; come, break down teh prison walls of death for those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death; and lead your captive people  into freedom.

This evening's "O" Antiphon:

O Flower of Jesse's Stem, you have been raised up as a sign for all people; kings stand silent in your presence; the nations bow down in worship before you.  Come, let nothing keep you from coming to our aid.
