SGS News - Nativity of St. John the Baptist
Dear Friend of the Saint Gregory Society,
I have some happy news to relate: just like last year, some
members of the men’s Schola have volunteered to help us
maintain the Gregorian chant at the High Mass over the
summer months. This will continue on a more or less
biweekly basis until the start of our regular fall calendar in
mid-September. The first High Mass of the summer period
will be on July 1st, and the full summer schedule will soon
be available on our website. When it is ready you will be
notified per email. Also, if you know of others who might like
be kept informed of our activities, please encourage them to
join our email list. Needless to say, we hope to see you at
Sacred Heart in the days and weeks ahead!
Our schedule for the next two weeks is as follows:
* The Nativity of St. John the Baptist
Sunday, June 24th. High Mass at 2pm, to be celebrated by
Fr. Richard Cipolla (St. Mary’s, Stamford). The men’s Schola
will sing the the Gregorian Mass XI (”Orbis factor”), plainsong
hymns (including the famous office hymn “Ut queant laxis”),
and all the proper Gregorian chants. The second offering will
be for the benefit of the Saint Gregory Society.
* Most Precious Blood of Our Lord
Sunday, July 1st. High Mass at 2pm, to be celebrated by
Fr. Richard Cipolla (St. Mary’s, Stamford). The summer Schola
will sing the the Missa de Angelis, plainsong hymns, and all
the proper Gregorian chants.
ALL MASSES TAKE PLACE IN SACRED HEART CHURCH,
NEW HAVEN (COLUMBUS AVENUE AT LIBERTY STREET,
NEAR UNION STATION).
