This is one of those rare times in the three-year liturgical cycle that the same Psalm (in this case, Psalm 122) appears after the first reading. We close Year C (in the Proper of Time, sometimes known as the Proper of Seasons) with three versicles of Psalm 122, along with the antiphon Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord. Next Sunday, the First Sunday of Advent, we open Year A with Psalm 122 also, but with five versicles. The only two other times a Psalm antiphon normally gets repeated on two or more consecutive Sundays are:
1. In Year B, Psalm 89 (antiphon: For ever I will sing the goodness of the Lord) on the Fourth Sunday of Advent and the Vigil Mass for Christmas, and
2. Also in Year B, Psalm 34 (antiphon: Taste and see the goodness of the Lord) on the 19th, 20th, and 21st Sundays of Ordinary (read: ordered) Time.
Our brass trio (two trumpets and French horn) will join us for the 5:00 PM Mass this Saturday, and the 9:00 and 11:15 AM Masses this Sunday, as we celebrate the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Universal King (in Festo Domini Nostri Jesu Christe, Universorum Regis).
