Line-up for SUN 03 AND 10 DEC: FIRST AND SECOND SUNDAYS IN ADVENT (plus upcoming Daily Mass Feasts and some Christmas music)

Thank you all for stepping up during last night's Novus Ordo Christ the King Mass -- and thanks especially for Fr. John O'Brien from St. Anthony of Padua Church for stepping in for Fr. Blake with a wonderful "High" Novus Ordo celebration.

Chris Maples, M.C.;
Fr. John O'Brien; 

and some other guy....

Following is the line-up for tomorrow night's practice, which will likely be long. Our practice next week (05 Dec) will be bumped by Lessons and Carols, and with the Holiday Crazy upon us I'm not counting on being able to get in a practice at all next week. I therefore plan to get through two week's worth of material ... and it's a big two weeks:

Yes. Really. The priority will be the starred items, but if we can get to any of the rest, that will be great. (I'll bring copies for everything new.)

Now, if I can just get rid of this cold that won't quite come, won't quite go....
