 Vespers of  Septuagesima Sunday

In the ancient Roman Rite, it is on Septuagesima Sunday  that the Alleluia ceases to be sung. It will not be heard again till Easter Sunday.This preparatory season helps us to set aside distractions before the start of Lent. In the Gospel, we hear the parable of the workers in the vineyard, which urges us to hasten to God's work.

The disciples of John the Baptist were waiting for the Messiah. But they would not believe their teacher when he told them that Jesus was the Christ. So they are sent to meet the Lord. He shows them His miracles, proofs of His divinity, and praises His Forerunner. The antiphon of the Magnificat canticle makes this present through Gregorian chant. Come and join us for Vespers of the 2nd Sunday of Advent!
