Dear Friend of the Saint Gregory Society,

This is a reminder that All Souls Day will be observed this coming
Monday at Sacred Heart Church. Unfortunately, due to various
conflicts (and the fact that it’s not a holy day of obligation this
year) the Mass for All Saints could not be scheduled.

* All Saints Day
NO TRADITIONAL MASS AT SACRED HEART

* All Souls Day
Monday, November 3rd, 7:30pm. High Mass, to be celebrated
by Fr Robert Boyd (St Mary’s, Norwalk). The chant Schola will
sing the Gregorian Requiem Mass.

Dear Friend of the Saint Gregory Society,

Apologies for the extra mailing, but there are a few things that
should have been mentioned in yesterday’s SGS News:

1) The preacher at the noon Mass at St. Mary’s on Sunday will now
be Fr. Paul Keller, OP. He will also be speaking afterward at the
reception on Pope Benedict’s liturgical “hermeneutic of continuity”
and the place of the traditional liturgy in the Church today. Not to
be missed!

2) We have been asked about the provision for communion in the
absence of a communion rail. Those who have trouble kneeling
will be pleased to hear that St. Mary’s has a few prie-dieux, and
we intend to put these out at communion time.

Finally, it has been brought to our attention that there will be a
special sung Mass on Sunday evening in Waterbury. The schola
director there, David Finley, is also the longstanding tenor soloist
in the Schola Cantorum of the Saint Gregory Society. He writes:

“The Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Waterbury will be
celebrating Christ the King at 6pm with the Schola Cantorum singing
the Byrd Mass for Three Voices and motets as well as the propers
and all are welcome to attend. For more information they can contact
me at XXX-XXX-XXXX or my email tenorprimo@aol.com.”

We have opted to delete David’s phone number, lest it get cached
by Google when this message posts to our website; anyone who would
like to phone him should reply to this email and we’ll send it along.

Until Sunday!!

Dear Friend of the Saint Gregory Society,

As already announced, the Feast of Christ the King will be observed this
Sunday at St. Mary’s Church in downtown New Haven with a traditional
Latin Mass at noon. PLEASE NOTE the changes in time and location for
this Mass; the regular schedule at Sacred Heart will resume the following
Sunday. Our plans for the feast include a convivial reception, with
festive food
and drink to match this historic occasion, and a talk on Pope Benedict’s
liturgical vision and the place of the traditional Mass in the Church today by
Fr. Paul Keller, Vice-President of the Society for Catholic liturgy and former
assisting priest at St. Mary’s parish. All are warmly invited to the Mass and
the reception.

Our schedule for the next two Sundays is as follows:

* Our Lord Jesus Christ the King
Sunday, October 26th. Solemn High Mass at *St. Mary’s Church*,
Hillhouse Avenue, New Haven, at *12pm*. The celebrant will be Fr.
Richard Cipolla, assisted by Deacon Robert Brunell and Fr. Robert
Boyd (subdeacon). The full Schola Cantorum of the Society will sing
Victoria’s Missa O quam gloriosum, motets by Josquin DesPrez,
and all the proper Gregorian chants. Mass will conclude with
Benediction, and will be followed by a festive reception and talk in
the parish hall. SEE THE NOTE ABOUT PARKING BELOW.

* Twenty-Fifth Sunday after Pentecost
Sunday, November 2nd. Low Mass at Sacred Heart Church at 2pm,
details TBA.

NOTE ABOUT PARKING: As many of you will know, there is no parking
lot at St. Mary’s. There are a limited number of spots in front and in back
of the church, i.e. on lower Hillhouse Avenue and on Temple Street
between Trumbull Street and Grove Street. But long-term construction
projects on both of these streets, on the half-block between the church
and Trumbull Street, have made parking more of a challenge than usual.
Have no fear, though! On Sundays all Yale University lots are free and
open to the public. The closest two of these can be accessed off of
Trumbull Street between Hillhouse and Temple (one of them is the lot for
the University Health Services; both are clearly marked with blue signs).
Moreover, there should be plenty of on-street parking within a short walk
of the church, e.g. on Grove Street or upper Hillhouse (which Dickens is
said to have called “the most beautiful street in America”!). So come one
and come all…and come early!

Please download and forward to your friends and family this invitation to this Sunday’s Solemn High Mass for the great Feast of Christ the King at St. Mary’s, New Haven, at 12:00 noon.

Dear Friend of the Saint Gregory Society,

As announced last week, the Feast of Christ the King (October 26th) will
be observed this year at St. Mary’s Church in downtown New Haven with
a traditional Latin Mass at noon. PLEASE NOTE the changes in time and
location for this Mass; the regular schedule at Sacred Heart will remain in
place this coming Sunday, the 19th, and will resume after Christ the King.
Our plans for the feast include a convivial reception with festive food and
drink to match this historic occasion — the first time in some 40 years that
Sunday Mass has been celebrated in the older form in New Haven’s oldest
Catholic parish. During the reception, a talk will be given on Pope Benedict’s
liturgical vision and the place of the traditional Mass in the Church today.
The speaker is Fr. Paul Keller, Vice-President of the Society for Catholic
liturgy, Professor of Theology at Providence College, and former assisting
priest at St. Mary’s parish. If you have been waiting for the right opportunity
to introduce a friend or family member to the traditional Mass, this is it! All
are warmly invited to the Mass and the reception. Please help us spread
the word by disseminating the attached poster and/or hanging it up in public
places near where you live.

Our schedule for the next two Sundays is as follows:

* Twenty-Third Sunday after Pentecost
Sunday, October 19th. Low Mass at Sacred Heart Church at 2pm,
to be celebrated by Fr. John Ringley (St. Lawrence, Shelton). The
second collection is a special Archdiocesan collection.

* Our Lord Jesus Christ the King
Sunday, October 26th. Solemn High Mass at *St. Mary’s Church*,
Hillhouse Avenue, New Haven, at *12pm*. The celebrant will be Fr.
Richard Cipolla, assisted by Deacon Robert Brunell and Fr. Robert
Boyd (subdeacon). The preacher will be Fr. Joseph Barranger, O.P.
The full Schola Cantorum of the Society will sing Victoria’s Missa
O quam gloriosum, motets by Josquin DesPrez, and all the proper
Gregorian chants. Mass will conclude with Benediction, and will
be followed by a festive reception in the parish hall, during which Fr.
Paul Keller, O.P., will speak about the pope and the liturgy.

NOTE ABOUT PARKING: As many of you will know, there is no parking

Dear Friend of the Saint Gregory Society,

The Saint Gregory Society is pleased to announce that the Feast of
Christ the King (Sunday, October 26th) will be observed this year at
St. Mary’s Church in downtown New Haven, with a traditional Latin Mass
at 12:00 Noon. Please note the changes in time and location for this
Mass. The full Schola Cantorum of the Society will perform choral
works of the great Renaissance masters Palestrina and Josquin DesPrez,
and all the Gregorian chants of this magnificent feast. During the
past year the celebration of the “Extraordinary Form” of the Mass has
expanded greatly the world over in response to Pope Benedict’s Motu
proprio “Summorum Pontificum”. This will be the first time in 40 years
that the older form of the Roman Liturgy has been offered for Sunday
Mass at St. Mary’s — an historic occasion, both in the life of St.
Mary’s parish and for the New Haven Catholic community at large. The
Society is of course very grateful that the pastor of St. Mary’s
Church, Fr. Joseph Allen, has extended us this special opportunity. In
view of the importance of this event, there will be no 2:00pm Latin
Mass at Sacred Heart on October 26th. More details will be forthcoming
over the next few weeks.

Our schedule for the next two Sundays is as follows:

* Twenty-Second Sunday after Pentecost
Sunday, October 12th. High Mass at 2pm, to be celebrated.
by Fr. John Ringley (St. Lawrence, Shelton). The chant schola
will sing the “Missa Marialis” (drawn from Vatican Masses IX
and X), plainsong anthems at offertory and communion
(”O Quam glorifica” and “Homo quidam”), and all the proper
Gregorian chants. The second offering will go to support the
work of the Saint Gregory Society.

* Twenty-Third Sunday after Pentecost
Sunday, October 19th. Low Mass at 2pm, to be celebrated
by Fr. John Ringley (St. Lawrence, Shelton).

ALL MASSES TAKE PLACE IN SACRED HEART CHURCH,
NEW HAVEN (COLUMBUS AVENUE AT LIBERTY STREET,
NEAR UNION STATION).
