+ I messed up the formatting on Venite Missa Est! and am working to correct it. I suspect that I used an old template that is no longer available which is why I cannot just revert to a previous layout. It's ugly now but I will fix it.

+ I received an anonymous comment on the blog on Post #108. Thank you for your input and your comments are noted! I will run everything through a spell checker and try to catch any mistakes. The submitted comment was copied and pasted directly below:

"certainly like your website but you need to test the spelling on
quite а few of youг poѕts. Severаl of them arе rife with spеlling issues and ӏ in finding it very bothersome to tell the reality on the otheг hanԁ I will definitely come bаck. 

+ Mr. Dimattia writes: A higher priority to get started is making an updated Latin Community telephone/address/e-mail book. Another priority is to have Msgr. Hemberger note in the Advance the appointment of Fr Jirak as Chaplain etc for the community.

+I see the Advance advertisement lists the new mass times. WHEN will the description of mass change? Might one assume that the "Mass in Latin" is for "Latin  people". Would the mass in Swahili, the Mass in German, the Mass in Hindi be any more or less descriptive of the 1:00 p.m. form of Mass? No, it would not.  It is the Extraordinary Form of the Latin Rite, the Traditional Latin Mass. Can we FINALLY changed this please?

Latin Mass at Blessed Sacrament Parish
An Update from Larry Bethel

Fr Jirak announced yesterday he will be celebrating a low mass this Tuesday at 6 P.M. at Blessed Sacrament.
I hope everyone enjoyed yesterday's mass with the first communicants and their parents and family. Thanks to everyone making it possible. Also, thanks to Fr Jirak for his homily and congratulations on his first High Mass.

Gregorian Chant Weekend October 25-27th 

An Update from Larry Bethel

+  Gregorian Chant Weekend October 25-27th  Since 2000 Clear Creek Abbey has hosted an annual Gregorian Chant Weekend Workshop. The purpose of this weekend Workshop is to teach the fundamentals and some of the nuances of Gregorian chant to proficient musicians as well as to beginners who wish to learn. Lessons are also given according to the Ward Method of musical education for children. Individuals, as well as whole families, are invited to attend and join their voices in praise of Our Creator and Lord, through Gregorian chant, which is so apt for beautifully and profoundly achieving this sublime goal. (The preceding link plays a short sample from our Ecce * Fiat recording.) This year the Chant Workshop will be held from October 25-27th. Click here to find out which chants will be studied and sung, to learn about the schedule, costs, options for accommodations, and how to register. We look forward to seeing and hearing you at Gregorian Chant Weekend at Clear Creek. Fr. Bachmann gives guidance and support to a group of youths as they learn the chants. Children have fun learning how to sing and feel the rhythm, through the Ward Method. The sonorous chanting of the Faithful resounds in the new church. Below are some items available in our website gift store. Click on what interests you: The Solesmes Method Chant - Book Praise of the Virgin Mary - CD Reflections on the Spirituality of Gregorian Chant - Book Please continue to forward these messages to others who may also enjoy seeing them. In this way we are reaching many more friends of Clear Creek Abbey, without being blocked by "spam" filters. Many thanks to all of you! Thank you and God bless you for your support. In Our Lord and Our Lady, +br. Philip Anderson, abbot

@@@@@@@@@@@@@

* In case you have not heard, historic and blessed news has been delivered to the St. Anthony Parish, Latin Mass Community. A previously unseen level of autonomy has befallen us. See post below.

*This Sunday, August 18, is the 13th Sunday After Pentecost, Second Class, Gloria, Credo and Preface of the Holy Trinity, green vestments.

Fr Voelker will celebrate his first High Mass and regrets that he will not be hearing confessions before Mass , this being his first Extraordinary Form Mass, he needs extra time to prepare.

After this Sunday confession before Mass is planned.

*It occurs to me that a new advertisement for the Extraordinary Form of Mass is needed in the Catholic Advance.

*Venite Missa Est! on Facebook? Umm...maybe.

In Case You Have Not Heard

Please Pass the Word Around

Blessings befalled the St. Anthony Latin Mass Community over the past weeks. For those who are unaware:

1. Msngr. Hemberger commended the St. Anthony Latin Mass Community.
2. Established the community as a canonically recognized chapel (note, not a parish)
3. Father Jirac will take over as our pastor along with two other priests, one from Hutchinson, one from Wichita (sorry I forget the names....I am bad with names..I will post them).
4. They will travel to Chicago to train at St. John Cantius for all the sacraments...
5. We will have ALL the sacraments.
6. We will have Holy days.
7. We will have confessions before mass.
8. Mass will be at 1 p.m. on Sundays.
9. One low mass a month will remain.

There are tons of details that will still need to be worked out as this develops organically such as money issues, property, etc. For now we are to handle all issues of donations and parish affiliations as we have previous.

For some this is an issue that they cannot support as their schedules will not allow it (it IS right in the middle of the day), for some it is an acceptable burden, but as we have already seen at the first mass, for others it is an opportunity to come and discover the Extraordinary Form for the first time.

So many people have been praying for SO LONG for this kind of thing to happen.

Deo Gratias
