...and now for the necessaries.
Please note: St. Anthony Catholic Church celebrates the Traditional Latin Mass (EFLR) in the Wichita diocese. Though this blog is loosely centered around this parish and it's members, Venite Missa Est! is by no means, in any way an official voice of, or for, St. Anthony Parish or the Diocese of Wichita. Venite Missa Est! is strictly a private layman's endeavor.

January 1: The Solemnity of Mary
Mass will be January 1st at 9:00 a.m. at St. Anthony parish.
January 1: the Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of God. On this day, we are reminded of the role that the Blessed Virgin played in the plan of our salvation. Christ's Birth was made possible by Mary's fiat: "Be it done unto me according to Thy word."
O Mary, Mother of God, pray for us!

One of the earliest titles given by Christians to the Blessed Virgin was Theotokos--"God-bearer." We celebrate her as the Mother of God, because, in bearing Christ, she bore the fullness of the Godhead within her.
As we begin another year, we draw inspiration from the selfless love of the Theotokos, who never hesitated to do the will of God. And we trust in her prayers to God for us, that we might, as the years pass, become more like her.
O Mary, Mother of God, pray for us!

A Message from Ralph Dimattia
Latin Mass Community Council
Latin Mass Community Council
A positive vote was passed for a gathering for refreshments after New Years Day 9:00 o'clock morning mass. I pass on this cheerful meeting asking for volunteers to bring food. Warm or cold dishes would fit nicely. No doughnuts. Kay and Diana will give backup support like plates, plastic ware ad napkins. For types of beverages you may have to call them. This message is passed on to our e-mail LMC directory. So they will be informed. Weather will be cooperating.
A further note is alerting our Sunday Jan. 5 mass community the St Clare room is closed for the 3rd Order Franciscans.
