Desiderio desideravi: Pope Francis on the liturgical reforms and on liturgical formation

In 2012, St. Ambrose hosted a gatehring to look back on the 50 years that followed Vatican II. Here are Deacon Agnoli's comments at that time. 

We have prepared Eveniong Prayer (Lauds) II for Sunday, December 3, that parishes may wish to use to mark this anniversary. Two fomats are avaialble: a simple form for recitationand a more solemn form with music / chant. Because these aids contaiend (c) text, we cannot post them here. Instead, please e-mail us and we will send you copies. Please note that you will need to have your own reprint license to use the musical texts. 

In addition, the FDLC has prepared a prayer service.  It quotes heavily from the Constitution itself -- even the intercessory prayers draw from the language of Sacrosanctum Concilium.  It is structured as an “Office of Readings” with pericopes from Scripture, Sacrosanctum Concilium, and Desiderio desideravi.   It might be used with your diocesan worship commission, with your parish team, with your clergy Emmaus groups, with your faculty or students, with music ministers, or other liturgical ministers.

A full presider’s text may be downloaded at www.FDLC.org/SC60  Feel free to share this link with your parishes and schools.
 
Though the First Sunday of Advent will take priority this Sunday, consider using/adapting some of the petitions for use at this Sunday’s Masses or at Monday’s Masses (on the actual anniversary).
