At this point in history, the Roman Church has two expressions of the same Mass: the Ordinary Form or the New\u00a0Mass of the Second Vatican Council and the Extraordinary Form the Mass or Traditional Latin Mass, according to the 1962 Missal of St. John XXIII. As you may know, the Mass of 1962 is prayed in Latin and is celebrated\u00a0<em>ad orientum<\/em>, that is, with the priest and people together facing East in worship. We closed this year of celebration with this expression\u00a0of the one Mass because it is the form\u00a0of the Mass which has been celebrated the longest in our present church building.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Solemn High Mass\u00a0was\u00a0celebrated on Sunday, 26 October - the Kingship of Christ.\u00a0Fr. Matthew Morris, a recently ordained son of the parish was\u00a0the Celebrant of the Mass. Dcn. Nic Ventura, another son of the parish who is completing studies and formation at the Josephinum to be ordained a priest this May, served\u00a0as the Deacon.\u00a0Dcn. Tom Carder of St. Catherine in Columbus served as the Subdeacon of the Mass.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some 300 persons\u00a0gathered\u00a0for this historic occasion to worship God and to give thanks for\u00a0the faith\u00a0and dedication of our forefathers in building this beautiful house of worship to almighty God.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\"What earlier generations held as sacred, remains sacred and great for us too, and it cannot be all of a sudden entirely forbidden or even considered harmful. It behooves all of us to preserve the riches which have developed in the Church\u2019s faith and prayer, and to give them their proper place.\" - Letter of Pope Benedict XVI to the Bishops of the World to Present the \"<em>Motu Proprio<\/em>\" on the Use of the Roman Liturgy prior to the Reforms of 1970.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_16  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_4 et_animated et-waypoint\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1446\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stmarylancaster.org\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_0586.jpg?resize=1080%2C1446&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stmarylancaster.org\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_0586.jpg?w=1536&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stmarylancaster.org\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_0586.jpg?resize=224%2C300&ssl=1 224w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stmarylancaster.org\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_0586.jpg?resize=768%2C1028&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stmarylancaster.org\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_0586.jpg?resize=807%2C1080&ssl=1 807w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stmarylancaster.org\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_0586.jpg?resize=1080%2C1446&ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" class=\"wp-image-6527\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_12  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_17  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_divider_6 et_pb_space et_pb_divider_hidden\"><div class=\"et_pb_divider_internal\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_5 et_animated et-waypoint\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stmarylancaster.org\/2015\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/IMG_18701.jpg?w=1080&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1936","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
