Appropriate Ordinary for St Joseph
  • Hello all:

    As is my wont, I am learning a feast or solemnity by heart. This season I chose st. Joseph. For no reason. I’m pretty well along on the propers but I found I don’t know which would be the standard or most appropriate Setting for the Ordinary of the Mass. It is a double of the first class, but I see in the Liber Usualis there are five or six masses for doubles. Any ideas?

    Thanks. Kenneth

    De Apostolis, missa IV one might think.

  • Egg in my face—Joseph, since changed. Yes, if it had been Matthew, De Apostolis would be it.

    Missae II - IV all would work.

  • Amindthatsuits,

    It sounds as if you intend to choose carefully. I second Stimson's suggestions.
