On Palm Sunday, the High Mass usually at 10.30am will start earlier at 10.00am to accommodate all of the additional ceremonies. The Holy Week schedule is available in the poster below.
Lent starts tomorrow and there will High Mass at the Birmingham Oratory at 7.30pm, replacing the usual 5.45pm Low Mass.
Our Lady of Perpetual Succour in Wolverhampton and the Birmingham Oratory will celebrate High Mass at 7.30pm for Candlemas tomorrow, the latter replacing the usual 5.45pm Low Mass.
There will be two High Masses in the region for the Feast of the Epiphany celebrated on Saturday 6th January, both at 11am at the Birmingham Oratory and Our Lady of Perpetual Succour in Wolverhampton. The Mass in Wolverhampton will be for the repose of the soul of Pope Benedict, who passed away just over a year ago.
This differs slightly from the Mass Listings disseminated with the most recent Mass of Ages which said the Epiphany would be celebrated as Low Mass at the usual time of 9am on Saturday and as an External Solemnity at 10.30am on Sunday - in fact, the 9am Mass will be in English and the Masses on Sunday will be the Masses of the second Sunday following Christmas, which in the 1962 Missal is of the Holy Family.
