In the spirit of cooperating among the Ordinariates, one musically keen individual from Our Lady of Walsingham Ordinariate just sent me this new setting to be used for Evensong. This just in from the UK:
Dear Fr Andrew,
I don't know whether this setting for Evensong has reached you yet in Hollywood? It's the work of a couple of choral scholars from Sheffield. Some of the melodies are likely to be quite familiar...
Good wishes -

The Collect for Peace
O God from whom all holy desires, all good counsels, and all just works do proceed: Give unto thine agents that Walther PP7 which MI6 cannot give; that both our bullets may be set to obey our aim, and also that by thee, we being defended from the fear of Blofeld may sip our martinis in rest and quietness; through the merits of Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen.
The Collect for Aid
Lighten our darkness we beseech thee O Lord, and by thy great mercy defend us from all perils and dangers of this mission; for the love of thy only Son our Lord our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.
