Traditional Latin Mass in Maryland

Heavenly Father, we give You thanks and praise!

The Catholic Review Online carries a revolutionary story by Mr. George Matysek, Jr. The report concerns Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish and the introduction of Eucharistic Adoration to young children . The Pastor, Fr. Erik Arnold, has introduced this program into the life of the Parish. The monthly half-hour gathering for children’s eucharistic adoration at Our Lady of Perpetual Help began last spring at the request of a home-schooling parent. This year, children from Our Lady of Perpetual Help School are also participating in the prayer session. The parish modeled its children’s adoration service on one developed by Father Antoine Thomas, a Brother of St. John and a native of France who promotes children’s adoration around the world. The service is becoming increasingly popular, attracting about 20 people last year and now averaging more than 60 homeschoolers, parents and parish school children.

To call this story heartbreaking is not nearly enough . Russia’s abortion rate is among the highest in the world, with nearly 70 percent of pregnancies ending in an abortion. The Western Europe abortion rate is about 12 per 1,000 women per year, while in Russia that figure is 54 per 1,000, according to U.N. records on abortion rates. In 2004 there were 100,000 more abortions than births. Further, about 10 to 15 percent of abortions in Russia have complications, leaving about 8 percent of women sterile. And people, the Legislative and Executive branches, are even considering the F.O.C.A. which will bring more of THIS here? May God help and forgive us all! Saint Michael the Archangel, protect us!

I have had visitors searching for Retreats or Workshops for priests on Gregorian Chant and other such topics. I would advise anyone seeking help in Sacred Music to first visit Musica Sacra. Here is one example--a Workshop on the Sung Mass in April, 2009 . Here is a list of upcoming events . Here is the ad for the Sacred Music Colloquium . Please bookmark MusicSacra . It is THE place to search first.

Christus Rex, Te Deum English version: Latin version: O God, we praise Thee: we acknowledge Thee to be the Lord. Te Deum laudamus: te Dominum confitemur. Thee, the Father, all the earth doth worship. Te aeternum Patrem omnis terra veneratur. To Thee all the Angels, the Heavens and all the Powers, Tibi omnes Angeli; tibi Caeli et universae Potestates; To Thee the Cherubim and Seraphim cry out without ceasing: Tibi Cherubim et Seraphim incessabili voce proclamant: Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts! Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, Dominus Deus Sabaoth. Full are the Heavens and the earth of the majesty of Thy glory. Pleni sunt caeli et terra maiestatis gloriae tuae.
