Dedication of the Lateran Basilica

Greetings All,
Thanks for yet another wonderful rehearsal on Thursday! I’m so pleased that we made good progress on some of the bigger rep that we are tackling. Below are our Ordo & resources for this Sunday, the Feast of the Dedication of the Lateran Basilica.


Fun fact: did you know that St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome is not the pope’s cathedral? It’s true! The Lateran Basilica is actually where the pope’s Cathedra is located, so it is technically the seat of his diocese. This is the true Papal Cathedral, which is why it is a universal Feast day that trumps a Sunday; in effect, it is the “Cathedral of all cathedrals”.
