Dear Brothers and Sisters,

All Souls’ Requiem 2020 on Monday, November 9th – LIVESTREAMED via YouTube, 7:30 p.m. I invite you to join us in remembering our beloved dead at this year’s Requiem, which will be on Monday, November 9th at 7:30 p.m. – the week after All Souls’ Day, and the same day on which we remember Dominican All Souls’. For 2020 the music will be the peaceful and pastoral Requiem by Gabriel Fauré. It’s a work of great beauty that will move our souls. I will direct a smaller choir than usual, and we will be using our wonderful new organ as the main accompaniment. As a Solemn High Requiem Mass, according to the Dominica Rite, its traditional elements will enable you to remember and pray for your loved ones. Our Prior, Fr. Vincent Kelber, O.P., will be the celebrant and preacher. As in past years, you will have an opportunity to make personal prayer intentions. We will remember especially those who have died from the Corona virus. The Mass itself will be livestreamed on our YouTube site so that you may watch and listen from the safety and comfort of your home. The link to the Mass will be available via YouTube. Please search under St. Dominic’s, San Francisco. If you would like the names of your family members and friends remembered in the program and at the altar, please email these by Wednesday morning, November 4th. (Even earlier would be appreciated.) We also invite you to consider making a donation in support of the 2020 Requiem Mass. Your donation will be used to help fund the future of our music program, including the special music for Advent and Christmas, which will also be broadcast on YouTube. You will be enabling us to continue bringing beautiful liturgical art to the community in the spectacular architectural setting with which we are blessed at St Dominic’s St. Dominic’s Schola Cantorum; Olivia Brown and Matthew Lovell, soloists; Harry Whitney, organist; directed by Simon Berry perform Fauré’s most sublime music in the context of Solemn High Dominican Rite Mass. Beautiful music, heartfelt Dominican preaching and soaring gothic architecture combine to provide a divine prayer experience. 2390 Bush Street, San Francisco, CA 94115. www.stdominics.org (415)567-7824.  |
