The 11am Solemn Mass in St Andrew’s Cathedral this coming Sunday 8 January 2023 will be offered especially for our Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI RIP.
While not a Requiem Mass as such, it being the Sunday of the Epiphany of the Lord, and the Prayers and Scriptures being of the Solemnity, it shall nevertheless be a Memorial Mass for the late Emeritus Pope. We shall sing the Missa de Angelis and the Credo at the Mass, as we remember him. All are welcome to join us.
That God may grant Pope Emeritus Benedict a share in the heavenly liturgy, for he devoutly exercised the ministry of priest and bishop in the earthly liturgy, let us pray to the Lord.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace. Amen.
The Mass is also being live-streamed – www.dunkelddiocese.co.uk/livestream
