Is there a Penitential Rite on All Souls Day?

    I don't know why, but for some reason I seem to remember that there is not a Penitential Rite on All Souls. Is that correct? If it is, can someone direct me to the source?
    Thanks.

    I think you're thinking of the funeral Mass in the OF the sprinkling of the casket 'replaces' the penitential rite. I don't like it but that's beside the point. I wouldent think it applys to all souls
  • If so, it would exclude the Faure Requiem we are singing on that day! The Introit and Kyrie are part of the same movement (with the EF in mind, of course)

    Michael,

    See this discussion re: Faure. I still don't know how my pastor is organizing all the liturgy for Monday, but we're doing Faure too.

    But we do the Faure as part of Vespers and Necrology, not a Mass. We do all of the Requiem up to the In Paradisum. Then read names of dead of the Diocese, then finish up with the In Paradisum and a closing prayer.

    There is no rubric in the 2002 Missale Romanum saying that the Penitential Rite should be ommitted.
  • Donnaswan, How do you include the Kyrie, Sanctus and Agnus in Vespers?
