For the Summer months I do a monthly Mass leaflet, quite a squeeze when there are 5 weeks. It has the same as the weekly leaflet: Kyrie, Gloria, Readings with reference and caption, psalm response, Eucharistic Acclamations, Lamb of God and Communion antiphon. As they are used over a number of Sundays I have noticed that people turn to the Liturgy of the Word but do not turn the page back for the Eucharistic Acclamations - because they are known. I also use one Memorial Acclamation per month - July is C (so that August this year will be B When we eat this Bread. One final comment about the leaflet is that I rarely put the music for the Gospel Acclamation in - partly because of space but also an assumption that this is something people should know.

A solo cantor this morning.
I was away at a Conference in Hungary. It is always dangerours to draw the general from the specific but I was interested in a country's minimum liturgical/musical standard. So though we had for our Masses a singer and organist from the local cathedral we managed Kyrie, Sanctus & Agnus from Mass XVIII and little else. For example in Mass with the bishop the doxology was said. Admittedly our unfamiliarity with Hungarian was a possible issue - but the group is usually game to have a go and will happily sing a Taizé chant.

Just a cantor again as most of the choir was able to be at one of our member's wedding. I know the congregation appreciate that we make an effort to offer some continuity.
