 - SIDE NOTE: A couple of weeks ago, my wife Ann and I were taking a scenic drive through northern Cumberland into Plainville, Massachusetts.  Off one of the back roads, where the Mount St. Rita Health Center is (once owned and operated by the Sisters of Mercy), there is a small street, Alexis Donnelly Way, named after the composer of the above anthem.

Meditation hymn: Come with us, O blessed Jesus (Maroon hymnal, #211) (Listen)
 - Same tune as the beloved J.S. Bach classic, "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring"
Recessional hymn: From all that dwell below the skies (Maroon hymnal, #277)

 - Same tune as "All people that on earth do dwell".  In this particular hymn, the familiar doxology, "Praise God from whom all blessings flow" is the third and final verse.

Striving to keep the "Holy" in "Holy Mass", I remain,
