Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, sanctify me. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, inebriate me. Water from the side of Christ, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. O good Jesus, hear me. Within your wounds conceal me. Do not permit me to be parted from you. From the evil foe protect me. At the hour of my death call me. And bid me come to you, to praise you with all your saints for ever and ever. Amen.

I come from a family that loves choral music. In fact, I spent all of my adolescence and many adult years accompanying choirs. About 10 years ago I acquired an album of choral music, Best Loved Hymns from York Minster, and found myself drawn back time and again to their arrange-ment and performance of the ancient Christian prayer, “Anima Christi.” Entitled “Soul of My Saviour,” their rendition artfully draws out the poetic meaning of the Anima Christi: a most appropriate hymn for Corpus Christi. If we profess that God is love, what better way to adore him than in the Eucharist, his body and blood given for us? What better way to encounter his sacramental presence than by offering ourselves to him at every Mass? And what greater love than the divine love of Christ—his union with us in the Eucharistic sacrifice—that continues to strengthen, heal, and nourish us for the journey?

Thank you for so generously supporting the hymnal campaign last fall. We are ready to install the new St. Michael Hymnal and St. Edmund Campion Missal and Hymnal. Saturday, June 9, we plan to have a work day to exchange the old for the new hymnals. Contact the church office if you would like to come by and help! And soon we will have our permanent lectionary in the pews as well, the Lumen Christi Missal. Be sure to check out the index of hymns and look for your favorite. I know that one of my favorite hymns is there! Fr. Tim _________________________________________________________

Alma de Cristo

Alma Cristo, santifícame. Cuerpo de Cristo, sálvame. Sangre Cristo, embriágame. Agua del costado de Cristo, lávame. Pasión de Cristo, fortaléceme. ¡Oh, buen Jesús, óyeme! Dentro de tus llagas, escóndeme. No permitas que me aparte de ti. Del maligno enemigo, defiéndeme. En la hora de mi muerte, llámame y mándame ir a ti, para que con tus santos te alabe, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.

Yo vengo de una familia que ama la música coral. De hecho, yo pase toda mi adolescencia y muchos años adultos acompañando coros. Hace como 10 años que yo adquirí el álbum de música coral Best Loved Hymns from York Minster, y una y otra vez me encontré volviendo a escuchar su arreglo de la antigua oración cristiana, Anima Christi, que en castellano, se llama Alma de Cristo.

Stewardship & Development The Most Holy Body & Blood of Christ

The bishops’ stewardship pastoral asks, “And what do Christians bring to the Eucharistic celebration and join there with Jesus’ offering?”

The answer: “Their lives as Christian disciples; their personal vocations and the stewardship they have exercised regarding them; their individual

contributions to the great work of restoring all things in Christ.”

FATHER’S DAY ENVELOPES are now available in the pews for an honorary or memorial gift and your donations will help beautify the altar for Father’s Day.

Mission Collection: Next Sunday we welcome Fr. Linh Nguyen, a priest from the Diocese of Lexington, Kentucky, who is making an appeal for his diocese, which encompasses an area the size of Maryland, Delaware, and Rhode Island combined. Half the diocese is in the heart of Appalachia: a place of great beauty and also great poverty. Of 60 parishes in the diocese, roughly 40 rely on external funding to meet daily expenses. The diocese offers the Mission and Ministry Program, providing over one million dollars annually for applicant parishes, schools, and outreach ministries in the mountains. Fr. Linh is grateful for the chance to share this mission with us, and he invites us to join him in serving God.

POPE FRANCIS’ PRAYER INTENTION FOR JUNE: That social networks may work towards that inclusiveness which respects others for their differences.

Each of the five segments offers 6 Diocesan clock hours of instruction. $50 for all five classes. FREE for Saint Mary Cathedral parishioners who serve, or seek to serve, in Faith Formation ministry.

(continuación de la pagina 2) Titulado Soul of My Savior, esta interpretación extrae artísticamente el significado poético de la oración: un himno sumamente apropiado para Corpus Christi. Porque si profesamos que Dios es amor, ¿qué mejor manera de adorarlo que en la Eucaris-tía—el cuerpo y sangre dado a nosotros? Y ¿qué mejor manera de encontrar a su presencia en el sacramento que ofrecernos a él en cada Misa? ¿Qué amor más grande que el amor divino de Cristo, el unión de Él con nosotros a tra-vés del sacrificio Eucarístico, que sigue fortaleciéndonos, sanándonos, y nutriéndose por el camino.

Gracias por su apoyo generoso el otoño pasado en nuestra campaña para comprar nuevos himnarios. Ya estamos listos para empezar a usar el himnario St. Michael y el St. Edmund Campion Missal and Hymnal. El sábado 9 de junio, queremos cambiar los himnarios viejos por los nue-vos. Si puedes venir y ayudarnos en esto, comunícate con la oficina. Muy pronto tendremos nuestro leccionario permanente en las bancas también, el Lumen Christi Missal. Revisa el índice de himnos y busca tu favorito. ¡Ya sé que uno de los míos sí está allí! Padre Tim _______________________________________________

El Rincón del Rector Los Nuevos Misales e Himnarios. Nos complace anunciar la llegada de nuestros nuevos misales e himnarios: The St. Michael Hymnal, Saint Edmund Campion Missal & Hymnal, y el Lumen Christi Missal. El fin de semana del 9 y 10 de junio, empezaremos a usar The St. Michael Hymnal and Saint Edmund Campion Missal & Hymnal en las misas en inglés y latín, respectivamente. Las lecturas de las Escrituras aparecerán en el Lumen Christi Missal que llegará este verano y en ese momento los distribuiremos a las bancas. Continuaremos usando el libro Flor y Canto y la missalette en español para las misas en español.

Los cambios a la liturgia provocados por las reformas de las traducciones del año 2011 también afectaron las lecturas y las partes responsoriales de la Misa. El himnario Worship nos ha servido bien en los últimos años, pero ahora, hay que comenzar a usar los materiales para los ritos como actualmente están en uso. La selección de los himnarios fue cuidadosamente considerada por el clero y yo y creemos que hemos obtenido la mejor música disponi-ble para nuestra congregación. Ya conocen muchos de los himnos contenidos en los nuevos himnarios; algunos serán nuevos, y otros no vamos a usar pero fueron incluidos por el editor ya que son conocidos por muchos católicos.

Hay que notar que los cantos gregorianos están en la nota-ción medieval tradicional. Tomará un poco de tiempo para acostumbrarse, pero es fácil de aprender y, de hecho, tiene más sentido para el canto que la notación moderna que se ha usado durante los últimos 40 años. Sabemos que se van a tener que acostumbrarse a los nuevos himnarios y misales, peros estamos confiados en que las ediciones seleccionadas se adaptarán más a las necesidades de nuestra parroquia.

El clero de la catedral y el departamento de música agra-decen a los generosos donantes que hicieron posible la compra de nuestros nuevos himnarios. Se agradece su apoyo más de lo que podríamos decir.

Dr. Jeffrey Jones-Ragona, Director de Música Sagrada _______________________________________________

New Missals & Hymnals. We are very pleased to announce the church pew edition of our new missals and hymnals: The St. Michael Hymnal, Saint Edmund Campion Missal & Hymnal, and Lumen Christi Missal. Beginning the weekend of June 9-10, The St. Michael Hymnal and Saint Edmund Campion Missal & Hymnal will be in use at English Masses and Latin Mass, respectively. The Scripture readings will be contained in the Lumen Christi Missal, arriving this summer and will be distributed to the pews at that time. We will continue to use Flor y Canto and the Spanish missalette for Spanish Masses.

The changes in the liturgy brought about by the reforms of language that began in 2011, also affected the readings and responsorial parts of the Mass. The Worship hymnal has served us well these past years, but it is time to begin using the materials for the rites as they currently are in use. The choice of hymnals was carefully considered by the clergy and me, and we believe we have obtained the best possible music available for our congregation. Many hymns will be familiar; some will be new, and some will not be utilized by us but were included by the publisher as they are known to many Catholics.

One thing to note is that the Gregorian chants are in the traditional Medieval notation. It will take some getting used to but is easily learned and actually makes more sense for chant than the stemless notepad modern notation that has been in use for the past 40 or so years. We know it will take time to get used to the new hymnals and missals, but we are confident the editions chosen will suit our parish needs more than adequately.

The Cathedral clergy and Music Department thank the generous donors who made it possible to obtain our new hymnals. Your support is appreciated more than we could say.

Dr. Jeffrey Jones-Ragona, Director of Sacred Music

Howdy, I'm Alex Odom, Seminarian for the Diocese of Austin, and I will be working here at the Cathedral for the coming year. I grew up in a Catholic home schooling family of 10 children. I was always active in my home parish of St. Catherine of Siena, and after attending high school youth night and Diocesan Catholic

Youth Conference, I began discerning if God was calling me to the priesthood. When asked by the vocations director to get more experience of the world before applying, I went to college for two years and then applied to the seminary. I was then asked to complete my degree and reapply. After graduating in December 2015 from TAMU, I was accepted into the seminary formation program and was sent to St. Joseph's Abbey and Seminary College in St. Benedict Louisiana, just across the lake from New Orleans. My last two years were spent growing and learning with my brother seminarians. I have come to Saint Mary Cathedral for a year of pastoral work before entering the theologate next year. I look forward to meeting you and being part of the Cathedral community.
