Una Voce San Bernardino

Just before the March 7 EF Mass at St. James in Perris, I was asked to address a group of young Confirmation candidates who were standing just outside the entrance of the church. The young man who was leading their studies for the evening stumbled upon the celebration of the Latin Mass five months ago and was immemdiately attracted to its beauty and reverence. So, he brought his class with him this evening. Unfortunately, it was for only half of the Mass, as the scheduled end of the class was during the Mass. So, I had to give an impromptu introduction to the history of the Latin Mass and why the language was in Latin. There was about fifteen of them.

Let us continue to pray for our young Catholics, that they may be given the grace necessary to combat the evils which they have to face day to day.

Sancte Aloysius Gonzaga, ora pro nobis!

1. Our Lenten Newsletter was written, edited, and published 2 weeks ago (Lent 2010). It was also distributed at local parishes. We will be creating one for each upcoming liturgical season. Publishing them costs money and we don’t exactly have a wide distribution to save money on printing, so donations are welcome to cover the cost.
2. I will be mailing our dues to Una Voce America today in the amount of $50 to cover our membership for this calendar year.
3. Una Voce OC is planning another Lenten Pilgrimage for March 14. This is yet, unconfirmed, and so await further details. It is a 15 mile walking pilgrimage from St. Michael’s Abbey in Silverado to San Juan Capistrano Serra Chapel.
4. Bishop Rutilio recently visited San Secondo D’Asti parish for his pastoral visitiation. Some recommendations were made. For more details, please contact the parish office.

Dear Una Voce SB Supporters,

The work continues. Please continue to help us make this an informative and useful blog. Help us to improve it, if you have any suggestions. Thank you for visiting, and by all means, keep on coming back for up to date information on local news regarding orthodox and traditional events.

AMDG.

Una Voce San Bernardino is donating 15 copies of For The Visitor At Mass (Angelus Press, 43 pages) by Fr. Richard Ginder to San Secondo D’Asti Catholic Church in Guasti, CA and 10 copies to the Latin Mass Community over at Christ the Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Adelanto, CA. This little booklet gives a brief explanation of the sights, sounds, and smells of the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite. It is a perfect resource for an introductory group study of the Traditional Latin Mass.
