The celebrant was

Br. Andrew Dominic Yang, O.P., served as deacon and subdeacon, respectively. The homily was preached by

Music was sung by
Cantores in Ecclesia under the direction of Blake Applegate:
Mass for Four Voices by William Byrd,
Ave Maria by Josquin de Prez, and the Gregorian Chant Propers.
