We are well into the long stretch of green Sundays, the Sundays after Pentecost. As you know, when the priest wears green, we will likely sing Mass XI, and so we did. And typically, we pair that with Credo I, and so we did.
For the processional we sang Glory be to Jesus, with its several references to the Blood of Our Lord, fitting for this month of the Precious Blood.
At the Offertory, we sang Virgo Dei Genitrix. The offertory antiphon was longish, so we chose a rather brief Marian anthem.
At the Communion, for Our Lord, we sang, which adverts to the Blood of Christ.
Earlier in the week, we had the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, and so, somewhat out of the ordinary, we sang a Marian hymn at the Communion, a hymn that comes to us from the Carmelites, the lovely Salve Mater.
In view of the recent anniversary of the release of the Motu Proprio that restricts the use of the Traditional Latin Mass (Traditionis Custodes), we sang Faith of our Fathers at the recessional.
