Sounds of October everywhere

I may not have turning leaves, or 21 quarts of applesauce, or favorite sweater weather, but it is still October here in sub-tropical Shenzhen, and for Catholics, October is the month of the Holy Rosary.

Sunday evening Mass opened with a Marian hymn, "Immaculate Mary." Unlike in the English version, we did not switch to Latin for the chorus.

So instead of "Ave Maria" it is what you hear here, Wanfu Maliya. Our Sunday night Masses have no musical accompaniment so please don't think we are all-voice-intoned all-the-time.
