We are still using The Mass of St Francis but looking ahead to late August when we will start with Mason’s Mass of Glory and Praise, we will start using his Gospel Acclamation from this week.
Entrance: As A Fire is Meant For Burning (Duck) GA481
Psalm 86 (O’Brien)
Lord, you are good and forgiving, good and forgiving.
Gifts: A Trusting Psalm (Bates) AOV 1/115
Communion: Seed, Scattered and Sown (Feiten) GA 195
Hosea (Norbet) AOV 1/30
Thanksgiving: The Summons (Maule-Bell) AOV NG 149
Recessional: Send Down the Fire (Haugen) AOV 2/164
Our list is:
E: God of My Salvation (Norbet)
PoG: no music
C: Living Spirit, Holy Fire (Lori True, Ruth Duck)
In the Light (Peacock)
Christ In Me Arise (Trevor Thomson)
R: World Peace Prayer (Haugen).
Mass setting: Glorify.
Yes, we found ‘In the Light’ very apt (your post of June 16, 2014) – acknowledging our inner weeds.
Our new PP gets the children to process up at the Presentation of the Gifts, greets each child by name, gives each child a sticker, and ask the congregation to pray over the children with him. There is thus no liturgical need for music at the Presentation of the Gifts.
That’s an interesting adaptation for “Gifts” that sounds wonderful from a pastoral perspective.
cheers
