SGS News - Sunday after the Ascension

Dear Friend of the Saint Gregory Society,Thanks largely to the response to the recently instituted
second collection during the High Mass at Sacred Heart we
are pleased to announce a special High Mass for the feast
of Pentecost at which the full Schola Cantorum of the
Society will perform. This represents a notable expansion
of our activities in comparison with the past few years, and it
is a direct consequence of your faithful support of our
common work. Needless to say, we are very grateful to God
for this, and hope that you can join us at Mass that day to
give thanks. Please bring a friend along, and plan to stay
for a while afterwards, when Marie Reynolds will host a
reception for all. The last one on Palm Sunday was a great
success, with plenty of good food and drink and enjoyable
conversation, and this one promises to be the same. For
more details about Pentecost at Sacred Heart see below.
And kindly help us to publicize this Mass by distributing the
attached poster to friends and family, and putting it up in
your local parish church!

Our calendar for the next two weeks is as follows:

* Sunday after the Ascension
Sunday, May 20th. Low Mass at 2pm, to be celebrated by
Fr. Kevin Fitzpatrick (Holy Cross, Fairfield).

* Pentecost
Sunday, May 27th. High Mass at 2pm to be celebrated by

linguis”), and the all the proper Gregorian chants. The Society
cordially invites you to a reception to be given in the former
convent adjacent to the church immediately following the Mass.
