A Solemn Mass will be sung for Quinquagesima (the Sunday Next before Lent) on Sunday 15 February at 10:30am.

As the Church comes to the threshold of Lent, Quinquagesima sets before us the way of the Cross, calling us to contemplate the mystery of Christ’s suffering and the transforming power of divine love. In the approaching Passion of our Lord, the depth of God’s mercy is revealed, and the path of salvation is opened to all who follow Him in faith.

All the faithful are warmly invited to assist at this Solemn Mass, said according to Divine Worship: The Missal (Ordinariate Use).

O LORD, who hast taught us that all our doings without charity are nothing worth: send thy Holy Spirit, and pour into our hearts that most excellent gift of charity, the very bond of peace and of all virtues, without which whosoever liveth is counted dead before thee; through Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, ever one God, world without end. Amen.
