Having just spent three and a half hours at a planning committee meeting, speaking as an objector, and then seeing the application granted on a majority I am quite shattered.<br /><br />It is good to know one's endeavours in the liturgical sphere are appreciated.Rubricariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050302650867319277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669950994040167422.post-71816730504168107972010-10-26T17:18:19.717+00:002010-10-26T17:18:19.717+00:00Dear +DM and Rubricarius,

This includes feasts of the LORD, the BVM, the Angels (so St. Raphael), St. John the Baptist, St. Joseph, the twelve Apostles;<br /><br />d) the last Gospel of certain impeded Votive Masses (the first group in the MR).Rubricariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050302650867319277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669950994040167422.post-2754497088379895542010-10-24T22:42:00.332+00:002010-10-24T22:42:00.332+00:00Rubricarius,
