Solemn Rorate Mass from December 15th, 2012, at St. Stephen the First Martyr Parish. The Rorate Mass is a special votive mass for Our Lady during Advent, traditionally celebrated by candlelight in the early morning. St. Stephen’s is a parish run by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter.
The piece is "Gabriel’s Message," a traditional Basque Advent carol, sung by the Choir and Choristers of St. Stephen the First Martyr Parish on the album "The Little Road to Bethlehem.”
This video was created by a talented parishioner, Jennifer Rego.

Hi Lena! 🙂
I’ve never heard of the Rorate Mass either — thank you for sharing! 🙂
By the way, this is Tina of TrulyRichMom. I hope you can make your Keeping Christ in Christmas post live today and send me the link. I’m now compiling all the links for emailing to all the participants.
Thanks and God bless always!
