Finding Texts For Propers

I am wondering if there are any good resources for locating certain Propers for the LOTH which are not included in the volume itself. For example, I was looking specifically for the Propers of the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, which is in May, and have not located a resource for the text. Anyone have any resources/suggestions?

Thanks!

there is a little supplement booklet for the dioceses of the United States that St. Joseph's puts out. :idontknow: other than that, i would have no idea.

now i know why i couldn't find it on my churchly calendar - it's on the same day this year as the Ascension - so the propers for that day will be the Ascension - especially since it's a thursday, i don't think the majority of dioceses will be abrogating that.

Most dioceses in the United States (including Birmingham, unfortunately) don't celebrate the Ascension on Thursday anyway, though... it's transferred to Sunday. Which leaves Thursday free for Our Lady of Fatima still, or the Easter Weekday. Although it would be cooler if the Ascension was celebrated on Ascension Thursday....

Anyway... MT... I don't recall there being any propers for Our Lady of Fatima. I think everything is taken from the common of the BVM, if one celebrates it. And I found at ordo from last year that directed only to the common, not to the proper of saints, which seems to suggest there are no propers. That always surprised me that it didn't have propers... but it is fairly new to the calendar... so maybe one is coming...
