Tridentine High Sung Mass for the XIX Sunday after Pentecost.

Today was a very special day for us all at Saint Walburge's. We welcomed our new Rector and Shepherd Canon Cristofoli, and a very fond farewell to our previous Rector Canon Altiere, we are going to miss Canon Altiere, but we are aware that because the ICKSP is a missionary order of priests that they could be moved at a moments notice (just like the Jesuits) or are given their new posts at the Annual General Chapter with Monsignor Wach.
Todays' Mass was beautiful. Canon Cristofoli offered the most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, Canon Montjean was the Deacon, and Canon Altiere was the Subdeacon. Canon Poucin was the choirmaster, in charge of the monastic schola and organist for parts of the Mass.
Today also marks the 150th Anniversary of the dedication of the Church, so the propers were from the XIX Sunday after Pentecost, the Epistle and Gospel were from the Dedication of a Church. Canon Montjean gave the sermon welcoming Canon Cristofoli from his Parish in Brittany.
