Feast of Blessed Hugh

Today is the feast of Blessed Hugh, the first disciple of Our Holy Father Norbert and Abbot of Prémontré.

May Blessed Hugh pray for all of us, and especially our own Prior, Father Hugh whose feast-day this is. Ad multos annos!

Hugo, qui multis, moderante Christo, Regulae sanctae jubar attulisti, Pelle jam nostras, rutilans beato Lumine noctes.En tuo certat soboles fidelis Nomine insigni decorari, at ipse Rursus accedens, gregibus novellis, Pastor adesto.Detur et nobis tua nunc per auras, O Parens, alte relevare signa! Tuque de coelo, soboli levamen Affer amanter.Fac ut ipsius precibus juvemur, Christe, fac Patrem pariterque tecum Spiritum jugi celebremus hymno, Omne per aevum. Amen.
