Text of Requiem Mass with translation for mobile devices. 

Please join us for two Sung Traditional Requiem Masses during the week of Laetare Sunday. The first (on Monday) will be for the repose of the soul of Maria Holc, mother of one of the Brothers in San Diego. The second (on Wednesday) will be for the repose of the souls of John M. Polhamus and Jean B. Polhamus, parents of Chorus Breviarii founder John B. Polhamus. Music for the latter Mass will be taken from Gabriel Fauré's choral Requiem (1890) and the traditional Gregorian chant propers. Additionally, all are free to join us on Tuesday night for the praying of the Office of the Dead for the repose of these souls.
