St. Junipero Serra and Chant

While on vacation in Monterey and Pacific Grove, CA, Sandy and I had the privilege of visiting the Carmel Mission where Fr. Junipero Serra resided, worked, and is buried. We were there the day before Pope Francis declared him a saint.

Included were a few chant-related items (click on the photos to enlarge them):

A well-illustrated Missale Romanum.

Psalms with responses.

The caption reads, "An original Mass composed by Father Estevan Tapis of this mission." He lived at the Carmel mission from 1806 to 1811.

Interesting: the staffs here have five lines, not four.
