Agostino Manni’s Primordia Oratorii, we are pleased to announce that further titles of Oratorian interest are now available, through the same online publishing facility, either in printed form, or as downloads. The current list of titles, to which additions will be made as time permits, is as follows: <br /></em> <br /><strong>Little Daily Office of the Heart of Saint Philip <br /></strong>Print: £7.00 <br />Download: £5.75 <br /><em>This volume contains a Little Daily Office, intended for private use only, of the Heart of Saint Philip. The texts are derived from the office composed in the nineteenth century by the Fathers of the English Oratories for the secondary feast of Saint Philip proposed by them, that of his heart, which sadly failed to gain papal approbation. </em> <br /> <br /><strong>Officium Cordis Sancti Philippi Nerii <br /></strong>Print: £7.00 <br />Download: £5.30 <br /><em>This volume contains the full texts of the draft office for a secondary feast of Saint Philip, composed in the nineteenth century by the Fathers of the English Oratories, who were endeavouring to foster more public devotion to the heart of Saint Philip, which was, as is well known, miraculously inflamed by the Holy Ghost while he was praying in the catacombs on the Vigil of Pentecost. The grant of the feast was not forthcoming, but this document is an important insight into nineteenth century English Oratorian spirituality and thought. <br /> <br /></em><strong>Devotions to St. Philip Neri <br /></strong>Print: £7.00 <br />Download: £4.90 <br /><em>A collection of Prayers and Devotions to Saint Philip Neri, the founder of the Congregation of the Oratory. This is a small devotional work. </em> <br /> <br /><strong>The School of Saint Philip Neri <br /></strong>Print: £16.00 <br />Download: £6.75 <br /><em>This major work by Father Giuseppe Crispino, a Neapolitan secular priest of the 17th century, covering all aspects of Oratorian spirituality and life, was originally translated by Father Faber in 1850. This new edition, in which Father Faber's High Victorian prose has been somewhat tempered to render it more accessible to the modern reader, also includes translations of the Latin quotations, which Faber left untranslated in his text. <br /></em> <br /><strong>Primordia Oratorii - The Beginning of the Oratory</strong> <br />Print: £9.50 <br />Download: £6.00 <br /><em>The author of this little work, Father Agostino Manni, was a friend and companion of Saint Philip. He wrote this account of the origin of the Oratory, and of its earliest practices, at the beginning of the 17th century, shortly before the Constitutions of the Congregation of the Oratory were approved. Unedited at the time of his death, it was recently translated from a later manuscript copy in the library of the London Oratory, and provides a valuable insight into the Oratorian ethos and way of life. <br /></em> <br />All these works may be obtained from LULU Books by following this link: http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/Oratoriana <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8571815759150288120-4017797671138468025?l=littleoratoryinlondon.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pipponoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571815759150288120.post-32503138404198813982011-08-01T10:24:00.000-07:002011-08-01T10:38:36.676-07:00<strong>Sunday 7th August</strong><br /><em>9.00a.m. Old Rite Low Mass:</em><br />Timothy Ashurst &amp; Anthony Jeffery<br /><em>11.00a.m. High Mass:</em><br />Richard McCarthy; Pat Roberts; James Cross &amp; Andrew Wilce<br /><em>3.30p.m. Solemn Vespers &amp; Benediction:</em><br />James Cross; Richard McCarthy; Oliver McCarthy &amp; Hans Coessens<br /><br /><strong>Sunday 14th August</strong><br /><em><strong>External Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary</strong></em><br /><em>9.00a.m. Old Rite Low Mass:</em><br />Richard McCarthy &amp; James Godwin<br /><em>11.00a.m. High Mass:</em><br />James Cooper &amp; Parish boys<br /><em>3.30p.m. Solemn Vespers &amp; Benediction:</em><br />James Cross; James Godwin; Philip Benzinski &amp; Hans Coessens<br /><br /><strong>Sunday 21st August</strong><br /><em>9.00a.m. Old Rite Low Mass:</em><br />Oliver McCarthy &amp; James Godwin<br /><em>11.00a.m. High Mass:</em><br />James Cross; Richard McCarthy; Jean Leger &amp; Andrew Wilce<br /><em>3.30p.m. Solemn Vespers &amp; Benediction:</em><br />James Cross; Oliver McCarthy; Jean Leger &amp; Hans Coessens<br /><br /><strong>Sunday 28th August</strong><br /><em>9.00a.m. Old Rite Low Mass:</em><br />Richard McCarthy &amp; Timothy Ashurst<br /><em>11.00a.m. High Mass:</em><br />Oliver McCarthy; Francis Carey; Bernard Diver &amp; Philip Benzinski<br /><em>3.30p.m. Solemn Vespers &amp; Benediction:</em><br />F.

Napier was beatified by Pope Pius XI in 1929 and the Most Reverend Bernard Longley Archbishop of Birmingham will lead a procession and bless a plaque for the last Oxford martyr who died in Oxford to be commemorated in this fashion. A number of Brothers in previous years have been supportive and we have been approached to find out whether any individual Brothers would like to take part and process in robes of the Confraternity of the Precious Blood. The days kicks off with Mass in the Dominican Priority at Blackfriars at 11am, the Procession will be at 2pm ending with Benediction at 3pm.<br /><br />If any individual Brothers would like to attend please be so good as to let me know as a number of Brothers have already expressed an interest.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8571815759150288120-2251912001038239350?l=littleoratoryinlondon.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Rectornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571815759150288120.post-39300298719639816662010-10-11T02:49:00.000-07:002010-10-13T07:31:04.508-07:00This year's Rosary Crusade of Reparation to the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary will take place on Saturday 16th October.

Whilst the most significant will be the beatification of the Venerable John Henry Newman, a number of events will take place in conjunction with the Holy Father's visit. Many of you will be aware that the Victoria and Albert Museum will be hosting an exhibition of the Raphael tapestries which are on loan from the Vatican. On Friday 17th September, a concert of sacred music will be performed by the choir at 7.00p.m, for which six Brothers will be needed to act as Ushers, robed. Any Brother who is willing and able to assist should contact the Secretary using the details below. God Willing, His Holiness will beatify John Henry Newman, adding another Oratorian to the</em> beati <em>in a ceremony on Sunday 19th September. In thanksgiving for this highly important act, a High Mass will be offered in the Oratory Church on Wednesday 22nd September at 6.30p.m, followed by the blessing of a new altar by our Archbishop, the Most Reverend Vincent Nichols.</em></span><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">The formal exercises will re-commence with the Congregation of Elections on Sunday 26th September in the Little Oratory after Vespers.</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">Next month, the Oratory's annual series of the October Organ Recitals on Monday evenings at 7.30p.m. will re-commence. For the last two years, a number of the Brothers have acted as Ushers. We have been asked again to provide Ushers for this year's series. If any of you are willing and able to assist, then please contact the Secretary by email or via written correspondence to Oratory House.</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">As is especially evident from this letter and this month's programme, the Brothers have a great deal of work to do. Whilst we understand that a number of Brothers are unfortunately only able to come to the Oratory and help on a limited basis, we would like them to remember that they can still offer inestimable assistance through their prayers, for which we are very grateful. All the Brothers are exhorted to pray very much for the Holy Father's visit, and for further vocations to the Oratory Community in London, and to the Brothers of the Little Oratory. We look forward to seeing of many of you as possible on Friday 5th November for the Annual Mass of Requiem for departed Brothers at 7.15p.m, followed by the annual dinner.</span></em><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8571815759150288120-7640593416593296179?l=littleoratoryinlondon.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pipponoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571815759150288120.post-14458926392238525052010-09-01T00:08:00.000-07:002010-09-09T02:25:43.179-07:00<span style="font-family:arial;">Here is this month's serving list:</span><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-family:arial;">Sunday 5th September</span></strong><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">9.00a.m. Old Rite Low Mass:</span></em><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">James Godwin &amp; Matthew Schellhorn</span><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">11.00a.m. High Mass:</span></em><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Richard McCarthy; Francis Carey; Oliver McCarthy &amp; Neil Glanfield</span><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">3.30p.m. Solemn Vespers and Benediction:</span></em><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">James Cross; Joel Coles; Matthew Schellhorn &amp; Richard McCarthy</span><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-family:arial;">Sunday 12th September</span></strong><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">9.00a.m. Old Rite Low Mass:</span></em><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">James Cross &amp; Timothy Ashurst</span><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">11.00a.m. High Mass:</span></em><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">James Cooper &amp; Parish boys</span><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">3.30p.m. Solemn Vespers and Benediction:</span></em><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">James Cross; Philip Benzinski; Jean Leger &amp; James Godwin</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span><br /><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;">Sunday 19th September</span></strong><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><em>9.00a.m. Old Rite Low Mass:</em></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><span style="font-family:arial;">Timothy Ashurst &amp; Oliver McCarthy</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><em>11.00a.m. High Mass:</em></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><span style="font-family:arial;">James Godwin; James Cross; Richard McCarthy &amp; Matthew Schellhorn</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><em>3.30p.m. Solemn Vespers and Benediction:</em></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">James Cross; Michael Tweedale; James Godwin &amp; Jean Leger</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><br /><strong><span style="font-family:arial;">Wednesday 22nd September</span></strong><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><em>6.30p.m.</em><strong> </strong><em>High Mass of Thanksgiving for the Beatification of the Venerable John Henry, Cardinal Newman (Cong.
