An Advent Mass Propers Question

[James0235]

My Midwest Theological Forum Daily Roman Missal is missing the Propers for Mass for the Saturday in the 3rd Week in Advent.

I have found the Readings on the USCCB website. But, does anyone know where I can find the Entrance Antiphon, the Alleluia Verse, and the Communion Verse? Not necessarily the texts themselves but at least the verse numbers.

The texts are deliberately left out of the Roman Missal.

The Saturday of the third week of Advent will always be on or after 17 December. Special Masses are provided for these dates:
“WEEKDAYS OF ADVENT
from December 17 to December 24
The following Masses are used on the days assigned, with the exception of Sunday”.
(Roman Missal, Catholic Book Publishing Co., New York, 1985, page 28).

So the Mass for this date is provided in the Missal and used.

Say Christmas is on Sunday 25 December, then it will be:
Sat 24
Fri 23
Thu 22
Wed 21
Tue 20
Mon 19
Sunday 18 (4th Sunday of Advent)
Saturday 17.

So a Saturday of the third week of Advent will always be on or after 17 December.

The readings at usccb.org/nab/122207.shtml are for December 22, which happened to be the Saturday in the Third Week of Advent in 2007.

Thank you. It makes perfect sense to me now.
