PENN STATE LATIN MASS GROUP CONTINUES TO ATTRACT STUDENTS


JANUARY 20TH, 2021

“Really in a time where faith isn’t being focused on in school, the Latin Mass
Society has proven to be a strong vehicle for bringing together Catholics and
different people across campus,” Birch said.

Birch is the group’s vice president and majors in statistics.

“I know in my major I cannot connect with too many people, but through this I’ve
been able to connect and grow with people in our shared faith,” he said.

Birch talked about how the sense of community in the group helps students grow
in faith.

“Ever since churches started reopening, since then I’ve gone to a Latin Mass
every Sunday,” Birch said. “It’s really helped me incorporate prayer into my
daily life, including saying the Rosary daily and undertaking acts of penance.”

NEW FSSP PARISH: OUR LADY OF SORROWS, NORTHWEST ARKANSAS


DECEMBER 19TH, 2020

Congratulations to Una Voce Northwest Arkansas and all the members of the parish
for this development.

Story in Arkansas Catholic here

Please remember prayers for Bishop Anthony Taylor as he is currently recovering
from Covid – with thanks to God for his pastoral care to the faithful.

“I am most humbled by the fruits of your labor and dedicate the labors of my
priesthood,” said Father Passo, as he thanked the congregants, other priests
present and Bishop Anthony B. Taylor. “How fitting in dedicating the parish to
Our Lady of Sorrows, as Our Lady will teach us how to suffer and how to love her
son. We start a new family as a parish, a new spiritual family and a community
trying to love God, to go to heaven and to be sanctified.”

“We were drawn to the reverent community, the tradition and the large families
we met here,” said Nowak, mother of 10.

“What drew us to the Mass is that it is holy,” Mike Fakult said. “The Latin Mass
sanctifies us as parishioners and a community, but it also sanctifies the whole
area for the parish to be established.”

CONSERVATIVE BAPTIST, HILLSDALE COLLEGE, HOSTS FIRST EVER TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS


OCTOBER 1ST, 2020

Founded in 1844 by abolitionists known as Free Will Baptists, Hillsdale College
has a liberal arts curriculum that is based on classical Western heritage.  As a
school founded in Protestant Christian theology, it might seem an unlikely spot
for the offering of the traditional Latin Mass.  However, Hillsdale did, indeed
host the college’s first ever Catholic Latin Mass ?in their “very
Anglican-looking chapel” on Sept. 24, 2020.

 


Priest and 2010 Hillsdale graduate Fr. Nathanael Anderson celebrated the first
Low Latin Mass in Christ Chapel.

“In a way it’s in conformity with what Hillsdale represents,” he said.
“Hillsdale strongly believes in recovering and living our heritage.”

Fr. Anderson approached the Catholic society about coming to Hillsdale and since
this semester’s theme is on liturgy, it worked well to have him say a Low Mass.

“The Latin Mass is part of our tradition. It’s something that as a Catholic you
can’t hate because it’s part of our tradition,” president of Catholic Society
Karl Weisenburger said. “It’s also important to know the novus ordo in context
of the Latin Mass and what it used to be.”

Anderson grew up as an evangelical Protestant. Two years after he had graduated
from Hillsdale he converted to Catholicism, and it wasn’t long until he felt
called to the priesthood.

“One day in confession, [the priest] brought up being a priest to me,” he said.
“It hit me pretty hard. I had a desire to become a priest, but I wasn’t sure
about it. None of my family was Catholic. It was hard not having a Catholic
family or upbringing.”

Anderson said it wasn’t until his parents converted on Easter in 2014 that he
had the courage to enter the seminary. Once there, he decided to teach himself
how to say the Latin Mass.

“When I converted, I realized that probably no one in my family had been
Catholic since 16th century Sweden, and I had a desire to be connected with that
tradition,” he said. “As a Catholic you should want to preserve what is old.
This is a sacred heritage; we can’t forget about it.”

“The primary draw for most people is a sense of the sacred,” Anderson said.
“What’s happening here is set apart from what happens in my ordinary life. That
kind of jarring difference, after you get over the barrier,  can become
something very enticing.”

Senior Morgan Morrison attends a Latin Mass back at home. The first Mass he ever
attended was a Low Mass.

“My first encounter with Catholicism was a Latin Low Mass during high school. It
was dark, silent, and completely breathtaking. There was no mistaking it for
some other Christian denomination. This was Catholic,” Morrison said.

Morrison said he is happy that students are seeing the old liturgy.

“I’m really happy that Hillsdale had the chance to experience the Latin Mass,
too,” he said. “It requires a different type of participation from the laity
than the Novus Ordo. Following along with the prayers is hard work. You have to
concentrate on your missal and the priest. But the result is well worth the
effort. You can enter into the mystery of Christ’s sacrifice more fully without
distractions.”

Unless weather poses a significant barrier, Whalen has been driving to Jackson
to attend a Latin Mass for the 25 years he’s been at Hillsdale. He started going
back in his undergraduate days.

“I certainly didn’t know much about the old rite, but what drew me to it was a
kind of instinctive recognition of the perfect way the form of the Mass embodied
and represented the sacramental reality of the Mass,” Whalen said.

The sacramental reality is “the fact that Christ is becoming completely present
in an intimate union with us,” Whalen said.

“That was perfectly represented by that form of Mass. Not because it’s pretty.
It’s not an aesthetic attraction or appeal. It’s not historical. My attraction
is not nostalgic. I didn’t grow up with the old Mass,” he said. “My attraction
is fundamentally sacramental and liturgical.”

Whalen said the reverential posture and movements of the Mass also appeal to
him.

“What is distinctive about the old Mass is that the personal individuality of
the participants is profoundly suppressed. That strikes some people as really
off-putting and alien,” he said. “Some people are attracted to it?—?to the
humanly impersonal nature of the ritual. So that the divine and human personal
nature of Christ’s presence is more clearly revealed. We’re getting in the way
of the reality of the divine. It’s not about me.”

The Latin Mass is an image of the eternal, for its “fixed and permanent” nature
is “meant to point to or symbolically embody the permanence and eternal nature
of the church,” Whalen said.

“For a while, going to the old Mass was thought to be something questionable
since to be attached to it was thought to be an implied rejection of the new
Mass. That sense has largely died out,” he said. “People now regard the old Mass
as they would view a beautiful old church. This is a place in which great things
can happen. It’s a good in and of itself.”

Whalen was careful to point out that even though he may call it the “old Mass,”
it is still something very vibrant.

“I think of it as alive, not a museum piece. It’s not a dead relic we bring out
and dust off and say ‘how quaint,’” he said. “It doesn’t participate in time. In
that way, too, it’s an image of the eternal.”

A High Mass will take place in Christ Chapel on Oct. 2 at 5 p.m., followed by a
talk from Whalen.

The elevation of St. Rose Philippine Duchesne to the status of parish shows the

financial health.

Currently, the parish has more than 800 members. It is served by three Priestly
