Download Ordo and Lectionary
These PDF files are for the Ordo and Eucharistic Lectionary that we use in choir at the Abbey. We will continue to send a printed copy of the office calendar to all oblates in January.
Download Choir Folders
These PDF files are made from the WordPerfect originals of our choir folders and contain all the music for our ferial office. The formatting hasn't carried over very well and the page numbering is awry. But we offer them 'as is' in the hope that those of you who wish to sing our music can extract what you need to use alongside your office books. Seasonal and other material will be added as and when it becomes available.
Please let us know if you have serious problems with the formatting and we can try to put it right.
