† Note: Those seeking the most recent post on the "Christmas Proclamation" in the Extraordinary Form in Latin with a Video accompaniment should go here (source 2016).   For the version in English with accompanying Video of 2015, go here.  The proclamation (referred to as the "Kalendas") arises from part of the Martyrologium of the Divine Office in the Office of Prime on December 24th. This explains the links to the Office of Prime in DivinumOfficium in 2015 and 2016. The version for 2018, "Martyrologium Octavo Kalendas Ianuarii Luna duodevicesima Anno 2018 Domini", is found here.   Fr. Zuhlsdorf has recorded an MP3 for the Proclamation of 2018.
