Traditional Latin Mass in Maryland

I am stunned by the number of searches for information on Dr. Thomas Dillon who tragically died in an auto accident in Dublin, Ireland. The number of searches on this little blog for articles has been nothing short of astonishing. He must have been an incredible soul, and I pray that he rests in Eternal Peace. Here is a short summary of just some of the articles appearing today to help those looking for information: Cardinal Newman Society VenturaCountyStar Catholic Exchange Catholic News Agency Catholic Blog Articles on Dr. Dillon Last night I posted an article by Robert Moynihan, Editor of Inside the Vatican . It has not been cited a great deal, but it is a very moving precis. Look for it on late Wednesday, April 15th on this blog. It was the first article I could find.

Robert Moynihan of Inside the Vatican Magazine has a beautiful tribute to Dr. Thomas Dillon here .

Matthew Alderman has a post from the NLM on the Eucharistic Procession scheduled for the University of Notre Dame on April 26 after the 11:45 Mass at Sacred Heart . This is the Fifth such event in this now annual series.

Update, 10:50 PM (EDT) - St. Thomas Aquinas has posted a message on the College's website . Please visit there also. Fr. John Zuhlsdorf posted a short item earlier this evening on this. President Thomas Dillon of Thomas Aquinas College died in a car accident today. The Old St. Patrick Oratory blog of Kansas City, MO has a bit more on this story . May he rest in peace!

Edwin Mora of CNSNews.com filed this story today . The Jesuit inscription, "I.H.S.", was covered over during the address. The origin of IHS, from the Greek, is described in detail here in the New Advent Catholic Encyclopedia . IHS refers to a contraction or monogram of the name for Jesus as detailed.

Okay, in full disclosure, this is a religious blog devoted to the Traditional/Gregorian/Tridentine Latin Mass in the Maryland area and its environs . The blog queue, however, shows MANY futile attempts to find "Susan Boyle." I have no clue as to why. She is this one: Susan Boyle - Singer - Britains Got Talent 2009 I am not a fan of these "American Idol" type shows, but after 4 emails from colleagues and, I believe, a few blog posts I've seen ("The Anchoress" for one), I did watch it. It is very moving, indeed, and she has a very nice voice. Enjoy it if the server hasn't crashed yet.
