He had them turn to the appropriate page in the hymnal for the "Gloria". He did this only on Wednesdays, which coincidently were "Coffee and Rolls" days in the church basement. There was always a big crowd and full parking lot on Wednesdays. It attracted the homeschoolers, too. Now that the long-time pastor has been reassigned, the homeschool kids have taken over leading the song, and the Latin Wednesdays continue, if I am not mistaken.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5745814378416915364.post-67006964261447588132013-05-15T12:32:18.059-07:002013-05-15T12:32:18.059-07:00@Anonymous: I'm the Mary who suggested the ...@Anonymous: I'm the Mary who suggested the StrangeNotions.com, if that is what you are asking about. <br /><br />Before I'd fully reveal my "secret identity" I'd first ask "Anonymous" WHO? *wink* :)<br /><br />MaryofSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07073267149527666844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5745814378416915364.post-3922879199553133872013-05-14T18:44:57.357-07:002013-05-14T18:44:57.357-07:00

I sure hope more adult choirs, beyond just those at Extraordinary Form Masses, can learn to sing this stuff, too! What a breathtaking alternative to the saccharine, self-focused "hymns" of recent decades. <br /><br />Can't want to hear more about the school of arts and culture! For some ideas you may want to look at St. Thomas More College's <a href="http://www.thomasmorecollege.edu/academics/program-of-studies-a-formation-in-wisdom-eloquence/way-of-beauty/" rel="nofollow"> Way of Beauty program</a>, their <a href="http://www.thomasmorecollege.edu/summerprogram/art-program" rel="nofollow">summer program</a>, (and its founder, David Clayton's, <a href="http://thewayofbeauty.org/" rel="nofollow"> "Way of Beauty"</a> blog ), as well as the <a href="http://www.instituteofcatholicculture.org" rel="nofollow">Institute of Catholic Culture</a>, particularly their lectures on the Nature of Beauty, not to mention the <a href="http://thelyceum.org/curriculum-fine-arts.html" rel="nofollow">Lyceum's Fine Arts Curriculum</a>.<br /><br />God be with you in all your endeavors to reinvigorate the greatly diminished sense of beauty to the Church!
