The Enchiridion Indulgentiarum states that the faithful can receive a plenary indulgence (according to the usual conditions) for taking part in a public recitation or solemn chant of the Te Deum in a Church or Oratory on New Year’s Eve in thanksgiving for the year, or the Veni, Creator Spiritus today. Very few people I know are aware of this and there was some surprise when the Te Deum was recited in all Masses and Services yesterday in our Parish. I also noticed that last night the Holy Father ended Solemn Vespers with the singing of the Te Deum before the Blessed Sacrament, but these are the only two times I have heard of this happening. So how widespread is this practice?
 
It’s part of LOTH every Sunday and solemnity, so if you pray the Office of Readingd in community or as a private devotion, you can enjoy the Te Deum quite often.
