I just received this email from someone in the Gregorian Society and I'm delighted to pass it along. It seems that Msgr. Arthur Bastress will begin a First Saturday TLM at 12:10 PM. Please spread the word! Yesterday, Monsignor Bastress--pastor of St. Alphonsus Church in Baltimore, MD --offered a First Saturday Traditional Latin Mass as part of the regularly scheduled First Saturday devotions at the venerable church. He was evidently pleased with the turn-out (~ 50 people) so he announced that henceforth, the Extraordinary Form Mass would be offered every First Saturday at St. Alphonsus Church at 12:10 PM .

Genitori, Genitoque Laus et iubilatio: Salus, honor, virtus quoque Sit et benedictio Procedenti ab utroque Compar sit laudatio. +++++++++++++++++++++++++ Sing, my tongue, the Savior's glory: Of His Flesh the mystery sing; Of His Blood all price exceeding. Shed by our immortal King.
