This year, the feat of the Annunciation fell in Passiontide and was therefore transferred to the next available day after the Octave of Easter. The feast was celebrated with great solemnity at Immaculate Heart Parish. A Missa Cantata (Sung Traditional Mass) was offered at 7pm and in addition to the beautiful chants of the Mass, the schola sang Dixit Maria by Hans Leo Hassler and Victoria’s setting of Ave Maria.

Mass was followed by hymns to Our Lady, candlelit Rosary Procession and chanted Litany of Loreto.
