Programming Note ~ EWTN this Sunday

The wonderful priest at the recent Catholic Homeschooling Mothers retreat I went to asked us to consider, "How can we support the Holy Father's initiative to encourage the Latin Mass in his Summorum Pontificum Motu Proprio?" Father Z notes there are many who see this as the Holy Father's way of reclaiming our Catholic Identity, a marshal plan....brick by brick.

"Most Catholics have not seen this heavenly celebration in over 40 years," said Father Calvin Goodwin, a professor at the Society's international English-speaking seminary (where training took place) located in Denton, Nebraska. "We are very excited to help EWTN and to support the Holy Father's call for a wider presence of this form of the Mass. This is a cause for great joy."

Referred to as "The most beautiful thing this side of heaven"....it is the identity of the Catholic Mass up until the last 40 years.
