I just received this email: Dear friends, Just passing this information: St. John the Baptist Church in Front Royal, VA will be offering a Solemn High Mass on Thursday - Ascension Thursday- at 7:00 pm. I checked the Parish bulletin for May 17th and there was no mention of this. As St. John's did have a May Crowning yesterday after their Sunday TLM, I pray that this was announced then. My source has been totally reliable!

Shawn Tribe posts another story on the Solemn High Mass from Harrisburg, PA and the seminarians of Mount Saint Mary's Seminary Schola . One of the comments contains photos linked on Flickr.

One of my email colleagues sent me this: SOLEMN HIGH MASS ON THE FEAST OF THE HOLY CROSS (LIVE) 2 hrs. Solemn High Mass of the Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross in the Extraordinary Form.

The New Liturgical Movement has a notice of the Solemn High TLM Mass on the Feast of the Most Precious Blood on EWTN . Don't miss it!

Apparently, even with all the coverage this news has received (on WDTPRS and on this blog on Divine Mercy Sunday ), some are not finding the full details. On Sunday, June 8th at 11:30 AM, Reverend Jonathan Romanoski, F.S.S.P. will celebrate a Solemn High Mass at Saint Alphonsus Church on Saratoga Street in Baltimore, MD . Here is a quote from the weekly bulletin written by Rev. Msgr. Arthur Bastress, Pastor of Saint Alphonsus: Let us warmly welcome Reverend Jonathan Romanoski as WE CELEBRATE WITH HIM AT the 11:30 a.m. Tridentine Latin Rite. Please join us after Mass in the courtyard for a reception in his honor and to extend our good wishes! I hope that a huge crowd can attend this Mass. Watching Fr. Romanoski being ordained was incredible. It will be a great privilege to see him celebrate the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in the Usus Antiquior . Laus Deo!

Father John Zuhlsdorf has posted an email with the two "major events" for this coming weekend . First, there is the F.S.S.P. Mass to be held in the Crypt at the Basilica of the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in D.C. on Saturday, June 7th . And second, there is a Solemn High Mass at Saint Alphonsus Church in Baltimore on Sunday, June 8th with Fr. Romanoski celebrating . Please see his post. Both locations can be found in the menu on the right under Blogroll and Favorite Websites.

This is from the bulletin online from Saint Alphonsus Church from Holy Trinity Sunday, May 18th, 2008 . Please print this or use the "search string": regional mass news and special events . MAY 25 —FEAST OF CORPUS CHRISTI @ THE 11:30 MASS THERE WILL BE FIRST COMMUNION FOR 3 CHILDREN, PROCESSION AND 3 BENEDICTIONS FOR THE FEAST OF CORPUS CHRISTI. MAY 31 —PLANNED PARENTHOOD ROSARY VIGIL.

I have had a couple of seekers looking for Special Masses that were posted here previously. There will be a Solemn High Mass on Sunday in Virginia and it is posted here . There is also a Mass being inaugurated in May at St. Bartholomew's Church in Manchester and that is linked here. Finally, there WILL be a Solemn High Mass at Saint Alphonsus in June by a newly-ordained member of the F.S.S.P. and that is linked here . I hope that helps. I am unaware of any Solemn High Masses in Baltimore this weekend.

My colleague who informs me of "all things Tridentine ," has sent this by email: There will be a Solemn High Mass in the Extraordinary Form ( Tridentine) on Saturday the 7th of June at 6 PM. This will NOT be in the Lady of Lourdes Chapel. Instead, it will be celebrated on the Main Altar in the Crypt Chapel of the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C . This will be the concluding Mass of the Fraternity's pilgrimage. I will post more if and when I get an update .

I have had a number of visitors searching for information on Our Lady of the Atonement Catholic Church in San Antonio, Texas . This is an "Anglican Use" Parish. By using the helpful locator of the Archdiocese of San Antonio , and by stipulating "Latin" as the language, I found the Church website . The Mass schedule is here . Note the description of the Solemn High Mass for this Parish : Worship at Our Lady of the Atonement is a spiritually enriching experience, in which the faithful are called to holiness by both the form and substance of the liturgical action. A Solemn High Mass involves the traditional use of incense, bells, a full procession, and Sacred Music from both the traditional Latin and English Catholic heritage . The Gloria, Credo and a number of hymns are always sung by the entire congregation, encouraging active participation by the laity. Other movements such as the Kyrie, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei are mo

Amy Wellborn of Charlotte Was Both has an excellent post linked to the Papa Ratzinger Forum on the length of time it takes for faithful translations of the Holy Father's communications to happen . Teresa Benedetta is on a roll! Shawn Tribe of the New Liturgical Movement announces a Solemn High Mass to be televised on EWTN scheduled for the 3rd Sunday of Easter (April 6th) . My good friend at DC Catholic posts a piece from someone at Georgetown University concerning the Pope's visit .

Shawn Tribe gets a second link today ! He reports on the NLM that the Society of St. Hugh of Cluny has organized a Solemn High Mass at the Church of Our Saviour in New York with a talk by Dr. Alcuin Reid to follow. The date is set for March 30th at 5 PM with the talk to follow. See his blog for details .
