I received this schedule from a good friend . It is the first of many schedules, I hope. The Masses are probably Novus Ordo Masses. If you have the FINAL schedule for your Parish (or a hyperlink to a PDF file or calendar), please send it to me at my email address: mastersarge "at" bluebottle "dot" com. I will post all of these just before Holy Week under one final schedule with links to each post.

This was stated last year and is still true. To my knowledge, there is no online resource which is yet in full accord with the stipulations of Summorum Pontificum . Only a written Missal will have the appropriate and correct Propers for the Mass. So, be advised of that fact straightaway. The Tridentine Latin Rite Missal Project is the embodiment of one person who has transcribed the pre- and post-1955 Missal online . It is a Herculean effort. Here is his line-up for Holy Week . Please see the above statement as a caveat: Palm Sunday (Pre-1955 version) (see Una Voce below) Maundy Thursday (Post-1955 version) Good Friday (Post-1955 version; the changes of Pope Benedict are NOT included) The Paschal Vigil (Post-1955 version); note the words of the Exsultet are to be found here Please use these as a guideline. There are sites such as the Una Voce of Orange County which have more current versions for some of these Masses in multiple file formats .

EWTN, the Eternal World Television Network, has an entire week of Specials planned. Please consult the website for last minute changes . And, be sure to send them a check between the water bill and the cable bill. It is the indispensable channel on any TV set.

Jeffrey Tucker at the NLM discloses an amazing find: a 1923 edition of the " Officium Majoris Hebdomadæ Et Octavæ Paschæ ." This book contains the entire "sung" liturgy of Holy Week and not just Masses! Go here for more information ! As Tucker says: If anyone in your parish is rather stuck in a Holy Week rut--it can easily happen--it is a great link or text to send to illustrate just how vast and detailed the ideal repertoire is. After all, the book is 553 pages! Bravo!

This story has been circulating in the blogosphere for several days. CNA does a nice summary today : [...] For the first time since 1940, March 17, St. Patrick’s Feast Day, falls during Holy Week. Due to the solemnity of the period, Masses for Saint Patrick cannot be held during Holy Week. Parishes must petition their bishop for permission to say a Mass in honor of the saint. According to USA Today, some American bishops have moved the celebration of Ireland’s patron saint up to March 14. The move has caused some secular organizers to change their schedule as well. [...] In Columbus, Ohio, Bishop Frederick Campbell tried to persuade the organizers of the secular festivities, the Shamrock Club, to keep Holy Week free of parade floats or extravagant parties. Despite months of negotiations, which included offers to make the bishop the grand marshal of the parade, both sides are at an impasse. "The 17th of March is a huge day for any Irish community," said Mark Dempsey
