Next month’s reminders and announcements are listed below, and are also available in a usable document here: October 2018 SSPX Ordo Notices.
The Holy Rosary: The External Solemnity of the Feast of the Holy Rosary belongs by right to the first Sunday of October (Rub. gen., 358a), and in 2018 this Sunday falls on the actual day of the feast (therefore resulting in the solemnization of the feast itself). The Mass of Rosary Sunday may be celebrated, the Mass being that of October 7, with a commemoration of the XX Sunday.
Christ the King: The Feast is October 28. Before the Blessed Sacrament exposed, the recitation is made of the Act of Consecration of the Human Race to the Sacred Heart of Jesus: O sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us humbly prostrate before Thine altar, etc. (which is not the same as the Act of Reparation used on the Feast of the Sacred Heart), and the Litany of the Sacred Heart is recited or sung. In addition, a procession with the Most Blessed Sacrament is customarily held today. The Blessed Sacrament is processed under a canopy. Additional altars of repose may be used along the procession route, with Benediction given there. The final Benediction is given upon return to the church. If the procession cannot be held outdoors, it may be held around the interior perimeter of the church. If the Blessed Sacrament is exposed in conjunction with the Mass, It is exposed after the completion of the Mass, not after Communion.
“Therefore by Our Apostolic Authority We institute the Feast of the Kingship of Our Lord Jesus Christ to be observed yearly throughout the whole world on the last Sunday of the month of October — the Sunday, that is, which immediately precedes the Feast of All Saints. We further ordain that the dedication of mankind to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, which Our predecessor of saintly memory, Pope Pius X, commanded to be renewed yearly, be made annually on that day.” — Pope Pius XI, Encyclical Quas primas §28, 11 December 1925
Funerals are permitted every day this month except on the Feast of Christ the King and where a church is celebrating its Titular feast.
