The Latin Prayer Podcast

Salvete! On this Episode you get what several people have been requesting for a while now both on my podcast as well as the Dr. Taylor Marshall podcast, the sung version of the Benedic Domine also known as the Benedictio Ante Mensam - the sung Blessing before meals. I did something a little bit different on this episode; not only do I sing the melody line but I also recorded it sung with a harmony...

Salvete! Having done music at a Novus Ordo parish for 10 years I was always looking for a way to take older hymns and re-arrange them so that they were palatable by the modern day parishioner - I wanted to introduce the beauty of original hymns even though we didn't have an organ, I would find a way to adapt them. This particular arrangement has been sung by yours truly at countless Catholic retre...

At the request of a listener here is an Act of Contrition (Actus Contritionis) from the Baltimore Catechism. I will be adding a simpler version of the AC in a future episode.

Angelus Domini The Angelus is recited at three particular times during the day; 6 am, 12 noon, and 6 pm. Traditionally it is recited kneeling while a bell is rung. During the Easter Season, the Angelus is replaced by the Regina Caeli. In nōmine Patris et Fīliī et Spīritūs Sānctī. Amen. V. Angelus Dominī nūntiāvit Marīæ. R. Et concēpit dē Spīritū Sānctō. Avē Marīa, grātiā plēn...

The history of this chaplet goes back to a devout Servant of God, Antonia d'Astonac, who had a vision of St. Michael. He told Antonia to honor him by nine salutations to the nine Choirs of Angels. St. Michael allegedly promised that whoever would practice this devotion in his honor would have, when approaching Holy Communion, an escort of nine angels chosen from each of the nine Choirs. In additio...
