Chow It All Down

On the right stands the queen in gold of Ophir…..

To end a rather tiring week settling timetable issues, I went with dar to the Cathedral for Mass. It was quite hilarious as she thought Mass would only last at most 45 min, with this being a Day of Obligation. However, The Chior of Risen Christ really impressed us with their fantastic voices and great music. And well, I told dar, ” welcome to the Catholic Church!”. Most Churches in Singapore have modernised, with music being less traditional and bringing in drums or rhythms. Although the modern settings help with keeping with the mood and ambience of the Mass, the traditional colour of the Mass is perhaps not as well brought out….


IN HONOUR OF OUR LADY:

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei,
ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc,
et in hora mortis nostrae.
Amen.
