English Propers for Rorate Caeli Mass
-
Hello! A young pastor is planning a Rorate Caeli pre-dawn candlelit Mass for both the 15th and 22nd of December, the Saturday of the 2nd and 3rd week of Advent. He does not want Latin; he has requested English Propers (introit, gradual, alleluia, offertory and communion antiphons) for those Marian Votive Masses. Can anyone help me with that?

Many, many thanks MarkB!

I don’t think the graduals can be sung in English, can they? Absent an approved translation?
