TLM Mass Groups Forming in Maryland
A good friend sent this email out today:
The Eastern Shore Website has a link to a form to assess interest. If anyone contacts me via email from the groups forming in Catonsville, Westminster, Manchester and Frederick, I'll be happy to post their contact information on this blog and act as a conduit for information.
There are several groups in Maryland seeking to obtain a Traditional Latin Mass in their locales: Frederick, Westminster/Manchester, Catonsville, and on the Eastern Shore. The group on the Eastern Shore has organized and just launched a website. Not much on this site (yet), but they are just getting formed.Please pray for all of these groups: so far, not much progress has been made, but we have not reached the Archbishop yet, who is reported to be favorable to the Traditional Latin Mass.

There is also a group in Washington County. They have written the Archbishop twice since November but have receive absolutely no response (neither has the group in Frederick). There is rumor that the Archdiocese does not want regularly scheduled TLMs at individual parishes. Let us pray this is not the case but the rumor is pretty solid.
ReplyDeleteWe have no idea what the Archbishop wants. The reason for this blog is that His Excellency, Archbishop Edwin O'Brien, stated that he wished to have a clearinghouse for the TLM in Maryland. That is a direct quote to the best of my recollection as I remember it from the Catholic Review.
ReplyDeleteI believe that the Ecclesia Dei Commission will clarify a great many points that were brought up by Bishop Trautman speaking for the U.S. Bishops as a Conference.
