For Advent we switch to the Mass of St Francis by Paul Taylor. This year for the wreath we are using “Come, Lord Jesus” by Chris de Silva (the American one). We will use Marty Haugen’s “Be With Me Lord” as the seasonal psalm. Instead of a thanksgiving hymn we will have quiet reflection.
I was not available to assist the team with the selections for Advent, so many thanks to those who did contribute.

Celebrating Thanksgiving weekend in the US, so I was back at my family’s home parish. I’m not sure if it’s a change just for Advent or if they’re doing it forever, but the cantor is now singing the entrance antiphon prior to the gathering hymn. I think it was Columba Kelly’s version, but I’m not positive.
