Does anyone have the Mass propers/Office antiphons for tomorrow’s OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE ETERNAL HIGH PRIEST? I’ve suddenly been asked to chant OF Mass and Vespers. Thanks!
I see that this has been grinding through the machinery for six years, but is it normal to only give two months notice (19th March to 20th May) of a new entry in the liturgical calendar?
What about Gregorian Mass propers for the new Marian feast on Pentecost Monday? Do we just use those of the Maternity on Oct. 11? Or, do we just use the Common?
The October 11 OF feast is the Maternity of the BVM, which is now observed under the title "Mary Mother of God" on January 1. It's not related to the title "Mary, Mother of the Church".
In Latin the antiphons are : Introit - Erant discípuli perseverántes unanímiter in oratióne cum María, matre Iesu. Communion - Núptiae factae sunt in Cana Galilaeae, et erat mater Iesu ibi; tunc fecit inítium signórum Iesus et manifestávit glóriam suam, et credidérunt in eum discípuli eius. - a dominican setting of the first part here. or - Ex cruce pendens dixit Iesus discípulo, quem diligébat: Ecce mater tua.
I guess that those are the 'spoken antiphons' (so called, they are usually scriptural snippets which stand alone, phons really), and they never provide one for the Offertory). CDWDS seems never tell us where to find things in the Gregorian treasury. I would look to the Common for singing. It would certainly be helpful for the Missal to tell us where to find the relevant GR and GS, not just hide the allusion in the intro, which few people read.
