Pontifical Vespers/Benediction, Saint Mary Magdalen's, Wandsworth. First Vespers, Feast Of Saints John Fisher And Thomas More. For Repose Of The Soul Of Evelyn Waugh.

Illustration: LMS CHAIRMAN

The Speaker at The Latin Mass Society's Annual General Meeting will be Archbishop Thomas Gullickson, Papal Nuncio to Switzerland and former Papal Nuncio to The Ukraine.

The evening before The AGM, Friday 8 July 2016, he will be officiating at Vespers in Saint Mary Magdalen's, Wandsworth, at 5:30 p.m.

Saturday's Feast, of SS Thomas More and John Fisher, is of such importance that this Vespers will be the First Vespers of it. Vespers will be offered, however, for The Repose of the Soul of Evelyn Waugh, whose sixtieth Anniversary is this year.

Waugh was invited to be the first President of The Latin Mass Society, but declined; he was to die the year after The Society was established. Until his death, he was the acknowledged Lay Leader of The Movement for The Preservation of The Ancient Catholic Liturgy, and we owe him a great deal.

Matthew Schellhorn will lead Cantus Magnus with some Polyphony for the occasion:
Giammateo Asola (1532–1609): Sanctorum meritis.
Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (1525–1594): Magnificat primi toni.
Sir Edward Elgar (1857–1934): O salutaris hostia; Ave verum Corpus.

Brothers by birth, Mark and Marcellianus were brothers especially because they generously shed their blood for the sake of Christ (Alleluia). Persecuted for their Faith, like The Prophets and The Apostles (Gospel), they were arrested under the Emperor Diocletian and were nailed by the feet to a post, where they remained hanging.

The Holy Ghost, Who filled their hearts with The Holy Love of God and the hope of an eternal reward, sustained them in their torments (Epistle) and protected them in their tribulations (Introit). "Never", they exclaimed, "have we enjoyed such delights as those we feel in suffering for Jesus Christ."

After a day and night of suffering, they were pierced with arrows, in 286 A.D., and their Souls "delivered like the sparrow from the bird-catcher's net" (Offertory) entered for ever "into the Kingdom which had been prepared for them from the beginning of the World" (Communion).

On this day, the Anniversary of the Heavenly Birth of these two Holy Martyrs, let us ask God, through their intercession, to deliver us from all the ills that threaten us (Collect).

Saint Ephrem was born in Nisibis, Mesopotamia, and was one of the Lights of The Church (Gospel). His father, a pagan priest, cast him out of his home. He then went as a Hermit in the desert and was Ordained Deacon of Edessa (Communion).

Led by The Holy Ghost to Caesarea, in Cappadocia, he there met Saint Basil. In order to refute the numerous errors which were being spread by the prayers and canticles of the Heretics, he wrote poems and Christian Hymns, celebrating the Mysteries of The Lives of Christ, The Blessed Virgin Mary, and The Saints. That is why he is called "The Harp of The Holy Ghost". He always had a great devotion to Our Lady.

He died at Edessa in 375 A.D., under the Emperor Valens. Pope Benedict XV proclaimed him a Doctor of The Universal Church (Collect).

Let us ask God, through the intercession of Saint Ephrem, to defend His Church against the snares of error and wickedness (Collect).

Imploring The Sacred Heart Of Jesus For Mercy For The Souls In Purgatory.

"Would that people knew with what eagerness the poor Souls in Purgatory ask for this new remedy which is so powerful to relieve their sufferings.

They call The Devotion to The Sacred Heart the 'Sovereign Remedy,' and ask particularly for Masses In Honour of

The Sacred Heart of Jesus."

Schola Abelis Singing Vespers In Merton College Chapel, Oxford.

The Oxford Gregorian Chant group, Schola Abelis,

sing Vespers in Merton College Chapel, Oxford.

Illustration: LMS CHAIRMAN

This Article is taken from LMS CHAIRMAN

Last Saturday evening, the Oxford Gregorian Chant group, Schola Abelis, sang Vespers in Merton College Chapel, Oxford.

Fr Richard Biggerstaff, the Director of The Saint Barnabas Society, officiated.

We don't often do Services in Anglican Chapels, but Vespers is a rather different proposition from Mass. It was an opportunity for the Schola to tackle the somewhat different challenges of The Divine Office, compared to Mass, and to sing in the wonderful acoustic of Merton's historic Chapel, as well as to honour Saint Barnabas and beg his intercession for the important work of the Saint Barnabas Society.

This supports Anglican and other Ordained Ministers who become Catholic, frequently losing their livelihoods in doing so. Go and support them through their Web-Site HERE.

The Schola Abelis is the only Choir in Oxford focusing on Gregorian Chant. And, though I say it myself, we sounded very good at Vespers. Anyone, from Town or University, who is interested in singing with us, should contact us oxfordgregorianchant@gmail.com

We don't expect previous experience singing Chant - or anything else. I should mention that it is an all-male Schola.

These days, we are being looked after, in the capacity of Cantor and Trainer, by Will Dawes, a Professional Singer based in Oxford with an excellent knowledge of Chant. Amusingly enough, he also directs an all-female Liturgical Choir. There is something for everyone in Oxford !

Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin 1812 - 1852. God's Own Architect.

In this BBC programme, Richard Taylor restores Pugin to his rightful place as one of the giants of The Victorian Age by taking us into his Gothic fantasy land.

From The Houses of Parliament to Alton Towers, from thousands of Churches throughout the Country to the details and furnishings of suburban family houses, Pugin changed the face of Britain with his visionary Gothic architecture.

Saint Basil was born at Caesarea, in Cappadocia. After having completed his studies at Constantinople and Athens with his intimate friend Saint Gregory of Nazianzen, he renounced the World, left his family (Gospel), and embraced Monastic Life in the Province of Pontus.

Like fully-seasoned salt (Gospel), he gave to his teaching the full flavour of the Gospel and nourished with Holy Truth  the people of Caesarea committed to his care (Communion).

He was the author of the famous rule which bears his name; it was praised by Saint Benedict and is still observed by the Monks of The East. The Holy Ghost filled him with His Divine Wisdom and with intelligence (Introit).

When, therefore, he wrote against those who rebelled against the sound Doctrine (Epistle), he attacked the Arians, who denied The Divinity of Jesus Christ, and prepared the triumph of Orthodoxy over the error of the Macedonians by firmly establishing the Catholic Dogma regarding The Holy Ghost.

The Life of Saint Basil the Great.

Available on YouTube at

https://youtu.be/birJLbl2e1M

He is one of the Four Great Doctors of The East. He died in 379 A.D.

Let us ask Saint Basil to fill us with his Faith in The Divinity of The Third Person of The Holy Trinity, and to deliver us from sin (Offertory) which hinders the working of The Holy Ghost in our Souls.

Mass: In médio.

Santa Maria del Mar is an imposing Church in the Ribera district of Barcelona, Spain, built between 1329 and 1383, at the height of Catalonia's maritime and mercantile pre-eminence. It is an outstanding example of Catalan Gothic Architecture, with a purity and unity of style that is very unusual in large Mediaeval buildings.

The Sacred Heart Of Jesus.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Illustration: CHURCH OF SAINTS PETER, PAUL, AND SAINT PHILOMENA

In the Roman Catholic Tradition, The Sacred Heart has been closely associated with Acts of Reparation to Jesus Christ. In his encyclical Miserentissimus Redemptor, Pope Pius XI stated: “The spirit of expiation, or reparation, has always had the first and foremost place in the Worship given to The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus”.

The Sacred Heart is often depicted in Christian art as a flaming heart, shining with Divine Light, pierced by the lance-wound, encircled by The Crown of Thorns, surmounted by a Cross, and Bleeding.

"O Sacred Heart".

Available on YouTube at

https://youtu.be/G2Ejipe3rVE

Sometimes, the image is shown shining within The Bosom of Christ, with His Wounded Hands pointing at The Heart. The Wounds and Crown of Thorns allude to the manner of Jesus’ Death, while the fire represents the Transformative Power of Divine Love.

The Feast of The Sacred Heart has been in The Roman Catholic Liturgical Calendar since 1856, and is celebrated nineteen days after Pentecost, always on a Friday.
