Report on St. Adelaide's first TLM
which was a Solemn High Mass
UnaVoceNH - This past Sunday's Solemn
High Mass at St.Adelaide's Church in
Peabody, MA,
was one of those events
that you just never forget.
It was very moving to see 3 priests (2 had
never offered a TLM before) offer their first
TLM so beautifully. I couldn't help but
wonder what the altar boys and servers
and the rest of the St. Adelaide's
Parishioners who had never witnessed a
TLM must have thought? For me, it was
the most beautiful thing this side of Heaven.

Pope’s ancient ornaments and
vestments underscore continuity
in the liturgy

Msgr. Guido Marini

.- The
Vatican’s Master of Papal Liturgical
Ceremonies, Msgr. Guido Marini explained
that the distinct ancient liturgical ornaments
and vestments being used by Pope Benedict
XVI underscore “the continuity of the current
liturgical celebration with that which has
characterized the life of the Church in the
past. The hermeneutic of continuity is always
an exact criterion for reading the course of
the Church in time.  This also applies to the
liturgy.”

of damage to the historic house of worship.

Sacred Heart's pastor, the Rev. Adrien
Longchamps said a crew from P.M.
MacKay Group of Nashua reached an
agreement with the Diocese of Manchester
and arrived early Tuesday morning to begin
the extensive renovations that will be needed
before the church can reopen.

the surrounding Catholic community, said the
mission of his church still continues and he
will use the various rooms in the next door
parish hall until the church can reopen.

Crowds Overflow Westminster
Cathedral for Traditional Latin
Mass Celebrated by Cardinal
Darío Castrillón Hoyos
(See Photo Essay and full text of the
Cardinal's address in our new section
Vatican Visit to England)

Latin Mass Society (June 17)
On Saturday 14 June 2008, at the
invitation of the Latin Mass Society,
Cardinal Darío  Castrillón Hoyos,
President of the Pontifical Commission
Ecclesia Dei (charged with oversight of
the Vatican’s relations with the religious
communities and laity committed to the
Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite)
and one of Pope  Benedict XVI’s closest
collaborators, celebrated a Pontifical
High Mass at the Throne in the
Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite
(Traditional Latin Rite) in Westminster
Cathedral for a congregation of over
1,500 which packed the side aisles and
overflowed into the piazza. It was the
first time since the liturgical changes
of 1969 that a Cardinal had celebrated
the  Extraordinary Form in Westminster
Cathedral. The Mass (of St Basil the
Great) was celebrated at the High Altar
 – the free-standing new rite altar
having  been removed – and was
filmed by the LMS for subsequent
transmission on EWTN. It will also be
released as a DVD.

Pope would like Tridentine
Mass in each parish,
Vatican official says
By Simon Caldwell
Catholic News Service

LONDON (CNS) -- Pope Benedict XVI
would like every Catholic parish in the
world to celebrate a regular Tridentine-
rite Mass, a Vatican cardinal has said.

Cardinal Dario Castrillon Hoyos also told
a June 14 press conference in London
 that the Vatican was writing to all
seminaries to ask that candidates to the
 priesthood are trained to celebrate Mass
 according to the extraordinary form of
 the Latin rite, also known as the
Tridentine Mass, restricted from the
1970s until July 2007 when Pope Benedict
 lifted some of those limits.

Latin Mass in every parish? 

London, Jun. 16, 2008 (CWNews.com) -
Pope Benedict XVI (
bio - news) hopes
to see the extraordinary form of the
Latin liturgy used in every parish, a
senior Vatican official told an audience
in England.

Cardinal Dario Castrillon Hoyos
(
bionews), the president of the
Ecclesia Dei Commission, told a June
14 press conference in London that
the traditional Latin Mass should be
reintroduced throughout  the Catholic
world. Asked whether the old liturgy
would eventually be used in many
parishes, the Colombian prelate replied:
"Not many parishes; all parishes."

Cardinal Castrillon said that English
seminaries should train priests to
celebrate the pre-conciliar liturgy.
In many parishes, he pointed out,
there will be few Catholics who
remember the old liturgy. Priests

should re-introduce them to the
extraordinary form, he said.

Extra cordiality as Pope
greets President Bush

 

Vatican, Jun. 13, 2008 (CWNews.com) -
Pope Benedict XVI (
bio - news) hosted
US President George W. Bush at the
Vatican on June 13 for an extraordin-
arily cordial private talk.

The warmth of the Holy Father's
reception for the American leader,
and the enthusiasm that Bush showed
during the meeting, prompted several
Italian journalists to question whether
the American president might be
considering a personal commitment to
 the Catholic faith.

   Losing a space
         to soar


Holy Trinity German Church
in Boston to close
By Yvonne Abraham

Globe Columnist / June 11, 2008

It's not what you expect to see when you
step into a Catholic church these days.

Demurely dressed women in lace
mantillas. A priest with his back to
the congregation: In nomini Patris, et
Filii, et Spiritus Sancti, Amen. Bells
ringing. Gregorian chant floating down
from the choir loft.

But here it all is at Holy Trinity German
Church, on Shawmut Avenue in the
South End, at the start of a sweltering
Sunday.

About 100 people from Bourne and
West Roxbury and all over come for the
 9 a.m. Latin Mass. They are men and
women of all ages, Catholics convinced
 that their church made a big mistake
when it did away with the Latin Mass.

"I don't get anything out of the [English]
 Mass," says Kathleen Stone, 59, of Hull.
 "There is a lack of reverence.
This is my time alone with God."

This grand church is the perfect setting
 for a Latin Mass.

Latin Lovers: Liturgical Trend
As the Church Awaits Missal
Translation
BY VALERIE SCHMALZ
Nat'l CatholicRegister June 8-14, 2008 Issue
SAN FRANCISCO — When Gloria Gazave
 started as a cantor at St. Thomas More
Church in San Francisco, she turned her
classical training as a singer to good use.

The 5 p.m. Saturday Mass now features
the Kyrie sung in Greek, with the
Sanctus, Gloria, Agnus Dei and
 sometimes the Creed and Memorial
Acclamation sung in Latin.

“It was real slow at first, but now people
 sing along. It is not that hard,” said the
 mother of five. The church prints song
 sheets that include the Latin chants.

“I was kind of nervous about how it was
 going to be accepted,” Gazave said.
“But  everyone has commented on how
 beautiful it is.”

Vatican: Receiving Eucharist
kneeling may not be permanent
change

By Cindy Wooden
Catholic News Service

VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- The four dozen people
who received Communion from Pope Benedict
 XVI on the feast of the Body and Blood of
Christ received the Eucharist on the tongue
 while kneeling.

Vatican officials said the gesture at the
 May 22 Mass outside the Basilica of St. John
Lateran does not mark a permanent change
 in papal liturgies, but highlighted the solemnity
of the feast and a connection to Mass
 practices in the past.

As the pope prepared to distribute Communion,
 two ushers placed a kneeler in front of the
 altar on the basilica steps. The chosen
 communicants -- laypeople, nuns, seminarians,
 priests and boys and girls who had received
their first Communion in their parishes in
May -- all knelt and received on the tongue.

Bishop surveys damage to
church                            
                                                     
Saturday, May 24, 2008


RAY MONGEAU/For The Citizen-The upper altar
area sustained damage from the arsonist-set fire at Sacred Heart Church on Union Street on
Tuesday.

The head of New Hampshire's Catholic Church expressed sadness and confusion on Friday when he traveled to Sacred Heart Church to support those impacted by a Tuesday arson fire that damaged its altar.

Bishop John B. McCormack of the Diocese of Manchester stood with Vicar of the Clergy Rev. Richard Thompson and Sacred Heart Pastor Rev. Adrien Longchamps in the darkened church as the group surveyed the damage from an intentionally set fire that filled the house of worship with smoke on Tuesday.

McCormack, dressed in all black with a large silver cross hanging from his neck, spoke calmly as he looked over the charred alter and burned carpets.

"When something like this happens, it's more than someone just doing something ... it's like a space has been violated," said Bishop McCormack.

The leader of the Catholic Church in New Hampshire said he traveled to Laconia primarily to support Rev. Longchamps whom, along with parishioners, he praised for beginning to move forward while holding mass in the adjacent parish gymnasium.

Sacred Heart Church, Laconia church's altars burned
By CAROL ROBIDOUX
New Hampshire Union Leader Staff
The UnaVoceNH community extends its deep sympathy and prayers to Father Adrien Longchamps and the Parishioners of Sacred Heart during this difficult time.

Police and fire officials are looking for the person or persons who deliberately set fire inside a Laconia church yesterday.
May 21, 2008 Laconia arson 275px (ALAN MACRAE/LACONIA FIRE DEPARTMENT)

It seemed to be very specific
damage. It's significant. We're taking
this very seriously," Laconia Fire Lt. Chris Shipp said last night. Police arrived first after getting a 911 call just before 5 p.m. for smoke in the building at Sacred Heart Church, 291 Union Ave. Although the fire had mostly burned out by the time fire crews arrived, Shipp said it could have been much worse. "There was absolute potential for a major fire.
It certainly could have been a
much different outcome," Shipp
said.
Two altars -- the high altar and
altar of sacrifice -- were burned, pages torn from a Bible and a
sermon book were burned and
strewn around the sanctuary, and several candles were tipped over.

Because the church door is
normally open, Shipp said there
was no sign of forced entry. "Unfortunately, I don't know what will happen to their open-door policy in light of this," Shipp said.

Sacred Heart is one of four
churches within the Diocese of Manchester that have reinstated
Latin Mass in the past year.
Martin Cameron of Portsmouth,
who is active with that movement, Una Voce or One Voice, last night said the vandalism is "tragic."

July 2:  Visitation of the Most 
             Blessed Virgin Mary


If this is your first time visiting Una Voce NH, welcome. The Holy Father's recent visit was particularly poignant for the Una Voce movement and for Una Voce New Hampshire. The release of his Motu Proprio last July enabled the  return to the Traditional Latin Mass in NH in four parishes for the first time in almost 40 years.

It is appropriate that we came online at the same time as the Motu Proprio went into effect in September. I am happy to report that since that time the Traditional Latin Mass(TLM) has spread to 4 locations with TLM being celebrated 4 Sundays a month in New Hampshire:
However, if the Masses are not listed as Confirmed on the Mass Schedule page you will need to check with the Parish to confirm dates and time of the Mass.

1st Sunday -Immaculate Conception,   
                         Portsmouth
                      -Sacred Heart, Laconia 
2nd Sunday- St Patrick's, Nashua 
3rd Sunday- St Margaret Mary, Keene 
4th Sunday-  St Patrick's, Nashua
5th Sundays-St Margaret Mary, Keene
               
  (note started March 30, 2008)   

    As the official voice of Una Voce International in New Hampshire, our goal is to unite traditional Catholics  throughout the state in a network to support and promote the celebration of the Mass according to the 1962 Missal of Blessed John XXIII.           
   
    With the July 2007 release of his Motu Proprio on the Extraordinary Form of the Mass, our Holy Father  Benedict has opened the doors in New Hampshire to the celebration of the traditional Latin Tridentine Rite of the Mass for the first time in over 40 years.
This historic opportunity has created significant needs including:
    - communicating the message of the beauty and theology of the Latin Mass,
    - enabling programs for Priestly formation in Latin in the traditional rite,
    - training for Altar Servers, 
   -
development of sacred music programs,
    - and sacristal support and procurement of traditional vestments, altar cards, chalice veils, missals, communion pattens etc.
We need your help. Volunteer your efforts or donate to our cause!!!
Thank you...and may God Bless you!!!
