Latin Mass Propers for Palm Sunday & Holy Week USCCB Readings for Palm Sunday H/T: Opus Dei, US

The New Liturgical Movement has the full Holy Week schedule for the Church of Our Saviour, Park Avenue in New York . This is the site of Father George William Rutler's Meditations on the "Seven Last Words" each Good Friday. RORATE CAELI has a photoessay on Palm Sunday in the Philippines . Father John Zuhlsdorf of WDTPRS has an MP3 Podcazt of part of Saint Augustine's Sermon on the Lord's Passion. This is in Latin, of course .

May you all have a blessed and faith-filled Holy Week! Thomas Peters of AmericanPapist reports that Father Michael J. McGivney, founder of the Knights of Columbus, was recognized for his "heroic virtues" by the Holy Father . Father John Zuhlsdorf of " What Does the Prayer Really Say ," shows the new Papal Cross used by the Holy Father this morning . Whether this implies that the Pope John Paul II cross has been completely retired is not known.

Here is what I have posted; these are links to previous posts: Latin Mass Readings for Palm Sunday (1955 form; Palm blessings seem to have changed) Saint Alphonsus Church, Baltimore, Maryland Saint James the Greater Church, Charlestown, WVA The Masses in DC can be found by selecting from the menu to the right. Note I have the TLM links for the Churches in DC and suburban Maryland. These links should have info on TLM Masses for Palm Sunday and for Easter in the Church bulletins. The links are to the Church websites. If you can't find information there, please go here; DC Catholic posted a summary of the Easter Masses in DC . In an update, he also linked to Franciscan and Dominican liturgies.

This site, The Tridentine Latin Rite Missal Project, carries the readings for the Latin Mass according to the 1955 Missal . I have checked the Blessing of Palms according to the new Baronius " Summorum Pontificum Missal" used by the F.S.S.P. and these readings vary greatly from those in the older Missal . I would stick with a written Missal for guidance. With regard to the Palm Sunday Mass itself, the Introit, Collect, Epistle, Tract, etc. appear to be identical to the Baronius Missal (although I cannot vouch for precise translations as I did not check word for word) . One big change in the Summorum Pontificum approved 1962 Missale Romanum is that the Passion of Saint Matthew is shortened to 26.: 36-75; 27.: 1-66. The 1955 version begins at Matthew 26: 1-75 so is far longer. Check Fr. Zuhlsdorf's blog to hear the Passionale which he has on MP3 . It is glorious!

The Passion of Saint Matthew for Palm Sunday, the Passionale , is available here from Fr. John Zuhlsdorf in MP3 format as a Podcast on WDTPRS. There is no complete Latin for this Mass online unless Fr. John posts one of his older articles from the Wanderer later this week.

Update : For clarification, my source informs me that Mr. Bill Lademan is the Coordinator for the Latin Mass Committee . If you wish to become involved, please contact him as advised below. I have revised this post accordingly. I received email confirmation from my wonderful source at Saint James the Greater Catholic Church in Charles Town, WV that the TLM will be celebrated on Palm Sunday. This is from the bulletin for today: " TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS : We have a Traditional Latin Mass scheduled for next Sunday (Palm Sunday) at 4 pm . Fr. Gismondi of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter will be celebrating the Mass. He will also be here for Easter Sunday, March 23rd, for a Traditional Latin Mass at 4 pm". "St. James is sponsoring an Altar Boy Mini-Camp to prepare boys 10 to 16 to serve the TLM. The object of the Camp is to serve the Easter Sunday Mass on March 23 and subsequent Masses until a formal camp can be held this summer. Next sessio
