Did your parish start the new musical texts?

Bishop Quinn has given permission, in concert with the USCCB, to begin using the sung texts of the Gloria, Holy, Holy and Memorial Acclamations. Did your parish begin using them this week? At this week's presbyteral gathering I took a little informal poll and it showed that some parishes have begun using all three texts, some have begun with one text and will add more as weeks progress and others have not yet started using settings of the new texts.

If you did, how did it go? At my 7:30 a.m. Mass I was struck by how fully the congregation was singing the Lamb of God. It was inspiring.

Add your comments about how it went.
