Livestream from 

St. Michael the Archangel Church

While public group singing has been generally suspended and discouraged, some congregational singing has recently been permitted to resume.  It will be at first limited to the essential elements of the liturgy that are intended to be sung by the congregation: the dialogues between the priest and the people, acclamations, and the "Ordinary" of the Mass (Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei).

The parts of the Mass that change from day to day (the "Proper") will continue to be sung by the Cantor or Schola. The singing of additional hymns and songs will resume sometime in the future. 

In the meantime, we are recording a Hymn of the Week to keep our musical heritage alive. Sing the hymn at home with your family, listen in your car on the way home from Mass, or use it in your prayer as you meditate upon God's Word!

The Hymn of the Week video link may be found on our Prayer at Home page.

Keeping the Church's practice of the last 1,000 years, the pipe organ will also take a role in giving voice to the whole creation, symbolizing also the whole company of the Church and the Holy Spirit, who when we cannot pray as we ought, intercedes for us with "sighs too deep for words."
