Feast of the Sacred Heart in Brooklyn

Holy Name of Jesus Church will be celebrating the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus this Friday night, June 23rd at 7:00pm. The Feast of the Sacred Heart is celebrated on the day requested by our Lord – the Friday after the octave of Corpus Christi or 19 days after Pentecost Sunday. There is ample parking in the church lot.

Here is a note from the Latin Mass Choir Director about the music featured in Friday’s Mass:

“Music has it’s own tradition, which is deeply tied to the Traditional Catholic Church. Particularly Gregorian Chant, with its long modal lines expressing the sober realities and depth of the True Faith. During the Renaissance, chant continued to hold it’s rightful place as multiple voices were added to it and thereby raising the level of inspiration to exordinary heights. Today, as Traditionalism regains it’s rightful place, so too does music emerge to give added meaning to our spiritual life.

Six singers, the best of the best that New York City offers, will sing chant and polyphony as the Church has so gloriously done in the past for the feast of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Mass setting is by David Adam Smith, as well as the offertory motet. At communion the anonymous hymn “Cor_dulce” in three voices will be sung, as well as appointed palms.”
