Songs & Updates for Saturday, January 8, 2022 [updated]

Baptism of the Lord

Welcome to 2022 and our first Saturday Mass of the New Year! I hope everyone's doing well and had a great holiday season, despite everything going on.

We officially wrap up Christmas this week with Baptism of the Lord. Don't forget that the Gloria is back on the program until Lent. Ordinary Time will resume next week.

Our January music & cantor schedule is ready to go. Let me know if any issues. Note one new song for 01/15 & 01/22: SS #164 - Come to the Feast. We also have an RCIA Dismissal on 01/22.

Please take a look at When John Baptized by Jordan's River if unfamiliar; I don't believe we've done this one for a Saturday before. The tune is RENDEZ A DIEU.

For the Psalm, it would be nice to include the cannon; we'd need at least one person (ideally two) on each of the echoes (see recording below).

Finally, it's not too early to start thinking about special selections for Lent/Easter. As always, open to suggestions if you have any :-).

Be well, stay warm and see you Saturday!

UPDATE: 01/07: Please be prepared for some additional precautions this week due to Omicron; we'll also scale things back a bit until the situation improves.

Out: Ken, Maggie, Tom

(All Mass Parts are from Mass of Joy & Peace, including Gloria, Alleluia, Holy, Eucharistic Acclamation "B", Doxology & Lamb of God)
