So much to say, and so little time....

Don't be a stranger.  Quasi-lurkers like me appreciate you squeezing in posts like 124.  Pax et bonum!

Pluribus ditto-um to you! :oD

Speaking of Latin, a few years ago, I'd sing in my church choir for Midnight Mass, and we'd do the Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei in Latin. Absolutely beautiful.

There were also some other occasions when we got in Gregorian chant. Latin must be the language of the Angels.

Anyway, one day I sat with the missalette and my sheet music, and compared those 4 prayers. We've been so deprived of the richness and holiness of accurate translations. There is some interest of restoring them in Latin, to the vernacular Mass. I pray that happens.
