11:00 AM - High Mass - Rite 1
This mass incorporates the full ceremonial of Western liturgical tradition. The parts of mass are largely chanted and incense is used (lots of it!). The form of the mass comes from the Book of Common Prayer (1979), with additional chanted propers of the day, and may include elements from the Anglican Missal. Rite 1 (traditional language) is used. The Scripture readings are taken from the New Revised Standard Version of The Holy Bible, but the psalms, which are chanted, utilize a variety of psalters. There are hymns at this mass and are taken from The Hymnal 1982, The Hymnal 1940, and Lift Every Voice and Sing II. There is a sermon. The mass generally lasts from 75 to 90 minutes, but may run longer on major Solemnities and Holy Days. This mass is live streamed on YouTube and can be viewed through our webpage titled “Watch Our Services” above.
