From the Loft: Mass in the Chapel

For All Saints Day, Mass was celebrated by Fr. Hart, the chancellor of the diocese. In the beautiful Chapel of Christ the Teacher, voices blended in prayer while singing a chant mass setting of the Ordinaries. The Rossini English Propers for the Gradual, Alleluia,Offertory, and Communion were sung by the choir to the accompaniment of the Johannus organ. All this being quite wonderful, the congregation was prepared to sing the Ordinaries with their new "Book of Parish Chant," recently having been obtained through the generous support of donors.

All sung and done, the goal of glorifying God and edifying the people was achieved.

In this picture is Fr. Hart giving the final blessing.

From the Loft,

Mr. Kochel
