May this  Season be our  Epiphany too, may God clearly shows us how to accomplish what He wishes for us to do  AMDG made the gates of  Heaven opened so that we may enter the heaven with all is  splendour.

In the meanwhile, here  on this earth, the Holy  Liturgy is celebrated with full splendour-Holy Masses and the Divine Office recited by priests and religious either solo, or in choir.

By the grace of God, this year the  Brigittini Servitores recited and chanted the Divine Office with previously unexperienced  splendour, with the 3 members of the community winging their songs of praise  Heavenward.

Here are  the  pictures  showing  the newest Sister receiving her veil on the Feast of the  Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Happy Feastday, everyone!

Between the 1^st Sunday of  Advent and Trinity Sunday,  Trinity Sunday there were 9  different liturgical season, each of which had its own theme, graces with a seasonal flavour own propers for seasonal feasts and  ferial days , with different texts, different melodies for the chant.

Enriched by all this, we are looking at 26 weeks, where although the  lessons and Hoy gospels and prayers vary, there is a certain uniformity of ferial propers. This, too, can provide certain challenges, inviting us to look for different meanings and messages within identical texts. The main thing is to go on praying.

There is an exciting new feature on the “About us” page – a new yellow  “Make a donation” button., making donations easier. There will shortly be new editorial, detailing our work, challenges and financial needs.  Obtaining a large enough Residentia is the most pressing, so please donate if you can, but  pray  for us in  either case, regardless whether you can or can  not  donate!

… and during its Octave let us  see in the  light of graces received not oly what we should ask for ourselves and for others , but what we should give thanks for !

Turn to the “Brigittine prayers” page to see how during the Octave we  embrace it all in song – the Holy Ghost, and Our  Lady, leaving all this a side on Friday when we ae at the foot of the cross.

Starting with the sombre Season of Septuagesima, we progress to the Season of Lent, a season of prayer, fasting and penitence, thus prepared to be reflect on the Passion of Our Lord through the liturgy of Passion-tide. All this culminates in the Triduum, the 3 days before Easter, with its once magnificent ceremonies everywhere. Traditionally, during these three days, the Tenebrae are chanted.
