The Mount Carmel Shrine Chapter of the Catholic Society of Young Adults invites you to attend the Traditional Latin Sung Mass on Sunday, December 3, 2017 at 10:25 AM celebrated in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite at the Pontifical Shrine of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.

On Tuesday December 12 at 7:00 PM the Society of St. Hugh of Cluny will be sponsoring a Solemn High Mass for the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe at the Church of the Immaculate Conception, 414 East 14th Street New York.

The music will be extraordinary: an orchestral mass and and selections from “Matins for the Virgin of Guadalupe” by Ignacio de Jerusalem, an 18th century composer from Lecce, Italy and Cadiz. He was active since the 1740’s in Mexico City, where he was chapel master at the cathedral. This will be a rare opportunity to hear this unique music from  Spanish Mexico, a blend of European and local traditions! James Wetzel will direct and Charles Weaver will be among the performers. We will provide further details closer to the time of the feast day.

After the Mass all are invited to a wine and cheese reception in the parish center.

This mass is made possible in part by the generosity of the late Msgr. Ignacio Barreiro, and will be offered for the repose of his soul.

(Above) The Lourdes chapel at Immaculate Conception Parish. Immaculate Conception is a beautiful church once an affiliate of Grace church (Episcopal). The traditional mass has been celebrated there on occasion since 2015.

Monday evening at St Vincent Ferrer: a Solemn Requiem in the Dominican rite – accompanied by Mozart’s requiem directed by James Wetzel. The combination of ceremonial, music and the Gothic splendor of this church, vast and mysterious in the semi-darkness, left a unique impression in this month of prayer for the dead. It was not a mere concert but a profoundly spiritual experience.

A large congregation occupied almost the entire center nave of this huge church. And afterwards many stayed and gathered downstairs for the festive reception. Our thanks to the Dominicans of this parish and of New York who made possible this liturgy as as to the many involved in making this evening such a success in every respect.
