"I have no means of proving my love for You other than that of strewing flowers, that is, not allowing one little sacrifice to escape, not one look, one word, profiting by all the smallest things and doing them through love; and in this way I shall strew flowers before Your throne." - St. Therese

...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.

Bulletin for Sunday, January 26, Third Sunday After Epiphany
Wichita Latin Mass Community
Calendar of coming Sundays:
Feb. 2: Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary/Feast of the Presentation (Candlemas). This feast marks 40 days since Christmas, the length of time for the completion of the purification of Mary according to the Mosaic law, and the presentation of her Child to God in the temple. It marks the end of the Christmas season in the traditional calendar, and candles have traditionally been blessed on this day, evoking Simeon's prayer to the Lord that Christ is "a light to reveal you to the nations."
Feb. 9: Fifth Sunday After Epiphany
Feb. 16: Septuagesima Sunday
GETTING TO KNOW THE LATIN MASS
On receiving Holy Communion:
The communicant does not say "Amen." The priest says it as he places the host on the communicant's tongue. The priest says, "May the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ preserve your soul unto life everlasting. Amen." Amen, of course, means "let it be so." In other words, "May this reception of Holy Communion have the effects for which I have just prayed."
