HOLY COMMUNION

We invite all Catholics who are properly disposed (i.e., in the state of grace and having fasted for one hour be-fore communion) to come forward in the usual way to receive Holy Communion.

All others, including our non-Catholic guests, may remain in their pews and join us in prayer. Alternatively, to participate in the communion procession and receive a blessing, come forward in the line and

cross your arms over your chest as you approach the minister. Thank you.

POSTCOMMUNION (11:00AM) JESU, THE VERY THOUGHT OF THEE PAUL HALLEY

Jesus, the very thought of Thee With sweetness fills my breast; But sweeter far Thy face to see, And in Thy presence rest. No voice can sing, nor heart can frame Nor can the memory find A sweeter sound than Thy blest Name, O Saviour of mankind! O hope of every contrite heart, O joy of all the meek, To those who fall how kind Thou art, good to those who seek! But what to those who find? Ah this no tongue nor pen can show; The love of Jesus, what it is None but His loved ones know. Jesu, our only joy be Thou, As Thou our prize wilt be; In Thee be all our glory now, And through eternity. In Thee be all our glory now, And through eternity. Amen.

MUSIC REMINDERS

—Cantors are needed for the 5:00pm Saturday Mass. Repertoire is straightforward, but an audition

is required. We hope the schedule so that everyone in the rotation sings once a month. Thank you!

—We have started the St. Cecilia Choir with the encouragement of Bishop Raica. The St. Cecil-

ia Choir is a new choral group at the Cathedral which helps lead singing at the 8:30am Mass, usually

celebrated by our diocesan Bishop, the Most Reverend Steven J. Raica. It provides a quality choral experi-

ence with rehearsal and repertoire demands less than that of Cathedral Choir. Rehearsal is Wednes-

day at 5:15pm: come join us !

—If you enjoy singing and can read music, please consider joining Cathedral Choir, which leads sing-

ing at the 11:00am Mass and holy days throughout the year. This Christmas, we will present Dvorak’s

Mass in D in its original version for organ and choir (likely a Birmingham premiere!) A thorough de-

scription of the ensemble can be found at www.stpaulsbhm.org/sacred-music. Please contact the Director

of Music, Bruce Ludwick, Jr., for more information! You will love being a part of this hard-working, yet

fun, choir.
