Mass of Grace by Gordon Proulx
Available for use in the Diocese of Grand Rapids
Here is a solid Mass setting to consider: singable, beautiful and flexible. Available in two keys, it is suitable for almost any kind of musical forces your community has to work with. A group of musicians from our NPM-GR chapter scrutinized and sang through this setting in January and were very pleased with the resulting sound!

Notes:
- This Mass setting is free to download, print and use in our diocese! To download, right-click on the link above and choose Save Link/Target As. Or, click on the link to view the music, and then save the pdf file you see from there.
- The Gloria is set so that it can be sung either straight through, or as a refrain with verses.
- The Alleluia includes just a model verse setting. Gordon will be providing a separate file that will have the verses used in Advent and Christmas for the next liturgical year.
- There are two Lamb of God settings. The first has a major key sound and uses the same theme as the Alleluia and Amen. The second has a minor key sound and uses the theme of the Lord Have Mercy and Holy. Feel free to use either or both.
