Intoning the Veni Creator Spiritus at Midnight of the New Year


NEW YEARS EVE AND NEW YEARS DAY
The only known midnight mass and opportunity to gain two plenary indulgences on January the 1st (Feast of the Circumcision of Our Lord) in the State of Georgia will be at the parish of St Francis de Sales in Mableton. Prior to the midnight mass, there will be a  Holy Hour, confessions, and benediction followed by the public singing of the Te Deum starts at 11:00 pm. Immediately following the Te Deum there will be a Low Mass at Midnight. After the Mass there will be the public singing of the Veni Creator Spiritus.  The public recitation of the Te Deum before midnight gains a plenary indulgence, AND the public recitation of the Veni Creator Spiritus after midnight carries another plenary indulgence. They both carry the usual conditions so you can receive confession and communion all in the same evening. A rare opportunity to gain two plenary indulgences on one trip to church. Also there will be another Low Mass on the Feast Day at 9:00 am and a HIGH MASS at 11:30 am. Confessions are heard before all masses. The Veni Creator Spiritus will be recited and or sung at both of the these masses to gain the indulgence

For info see  www.francisdesales.com

 Holy Mother Church provides two plenary indulgences on the last and first day of the year, see below ( usual conditions apply)

§ 1. A plenary indulgence is granted to the Christian faithful who, in a church or in an oratory, are present [take part] in a recitation or solemn chant of: ...
1° the hymn Veni Creator ... on the first day of the year, imploring divine assistance for the whole of the coming year...
2° the Te Deum hymn, on the last day of the year, in thanksgiving to God for the favors received in the course of the entire year.

LATIN MASS ENDS IN AUGUSTA THIS SUNDAY


Father Renaurd West, Sacred Ministers, and Servers

The next and LAST Latin mass in Augusta will be at 1:00 pm this Sunday November 4th  2018. This is the LAST SCHEDULED MASS in the Augusta area. Father West is putting the Latin Mass on hold and has not scheduled any future masses after Sunday. Support for the Latin Mass has been sporadic and unpredictable. If the Faithful Catholics in the Augusta area want the Latin Mass to resume then they must contact Father West and be willing to support it in order for Father to consider bringing it back. It is critical that everyone attend this Sundays mass and bring friends with you, if not then tradition will end in east Georgia. It has been a long hard fight to restore tradition to east Georgia and Father West has gone beyond the call of duty and gone out of his way to accommodate the serious Catholics in the Augusta area. Father West already says 4 novus ordo Sunday masses and it is unfair to him to ask him to say a 5th extra traditional mass when there is lack of sufficient support. It would be a shame to loose this precious gem.

Our Lady of Peace 1:00 pm LOW MASS
856 Old Edgefield Rd
North Augusta SC 29841


There will be a reception afterwards for Catholics to meet other traditional Catholics who are serious about their Faith. Please come and thank Father for what he is doing and ask him to continue celebrating the Traditional Mass. Please bring a snack to share to the reception. If you would like to help out in any way by ushering, helping with the after mass social, singing in the schola, altar serving etc., please contact Dr. Seiters at: thomas.j.seiter@gmail.com
