All Saints Day

Today is the feast of St Paul's  "great cloud of witnesses".

O Almighty God, who hast knit together thine elect in one communion and fellowship, in the mystical body of thy Son Christ our Lord:  grant us grace so to follow thy blessed Saints in all virtuous  and godly living;  that we may come to those unspeakable joys, which thou hast prepared for them that unfeignedly love thee.  Through the same Christ our Lord.  Amen.

We went to the vigil Mass last night - yes, it's still a Holy Day of Obligation, even here in the Archdiocese of Hollywood . . .  probably where you are, too.

Some music for the day that's in it.  (You can't beat Ralph Vaughn Williams.)

. . . . .

I shall be reveling in SCD most of this weekend.  We'll see how that posting-to-the-blog-from-the-phone wheeze works.
