November 24, 2014 With Blessed Father Alberione and With Father Tom

Monday, November 24
OF THE DAY
ST. ANDREW DUNG-LAC, PRIEST, MARTYR, AND HIS COMPANIONS
Rv 14: 1-5
Ps 24: 1-6
Lk 21: 1-4

Sing about beautiful things, full of meaning and devotion, so that you do beautiful services, and you do not come out with strange praises. The Pauline Family must also be a teacher in :"piety" (RSP p. 57).

From Father Tom:  What are "strange praises"? I think a better translation would be "strange hymns." I guess the Founder is referring to the sort of Church music that marked the period after Vatican Council II. However, there were also some beautiful new numbers and we sing these beautiful new numbers and we sing these without any danger of feeling "strange."

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. M. Tarcisia Genovesi PD (1936)--Sr. Carla Torchi FSP (1995)--Sr. M. Maurizia Masseria PD (2003)--Sr. Giovanna Biselli FSP (2006)--Sr. M. Rosalba Nota (2010)--Eleanor McParland (1990)
