Archbishop Cordileone will celebrate a Pontifical Low Roráte Mass at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption on Dec. 14 at 5:30am.
The Roráte Mass is a votive Mass in honor of the Virgin Mary for the season of Advent, lit only by candles. The Mass takes its title, Roráte, from the first words of the Introit, which are from Isaiah 45:8:
“Roráte, caeli, desuper, et nubes pluant justum, aperiatur terra, et germinet Salvatorem.”
“Drop down dew, ye heavens, from above, and let the clouds rain the just: let the earth be opened and bud forth a Saviour.”
