Sunday Bulletin 1st August 2021

Welcome to our First-Time Visitors! We are glad to share with you the beauty and depth of the traditional Latin Mass. Feel welcome to ask us about silence, Holy Communion on the tongue, the use of Latin, etc. Most people here came across this form of the Mass within the past few years or months. Like you they were perplexed at first. Now they treasure it. Find out more on lms.org.uk/faqs

Official communiqué

Published 20 July 2021

FSSP: Two Masses Enrich Each Other | Catholic Truth

Official communiqué of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter following the publication of the Motu Proprio Traditionis Custodes

Fribourg, July 20, 2021

The Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, whose goal is the sanctification of priests through the faithful observance of the liturgical traditions prior to the reform implemented after the Second Vatican Council (cf. Constitutions n. 8), has received Pope Francis’ Motu Proprio Traditionis Custodes with surprise.

Founded and canonically approved according to the Motu Proprio Ecclesia Dei Adflicta of Pope St. John Paul II of July 2, 1988, the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter has always professed its adherence to the entire Magisterium of the Church and its fidelity to the Roman Pontiff and the successors of the Apostles, exercising its ministry under the responsibility of the diocesan bishops. Referring in its Constitutions to the teachings of the Second Vatican Council, the Fraternity has always sought to be in accord with what Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI called in 2005: “the hermeneutic of reform in the continuity of the Church” (Address to the Roman Curia, December 22, 2005).

Today, therefore, the Fraternity of St. Peter is deeply saddened by the reasons given for limiting the use of the Missal of Pope St. John XXIII, which is at the center of its charism. The Fraternity in no way recognizes itself in the criticisms made. It is surprising that no mention is made of the many fruits visible in the apostolates attached to the missal of St. John XXIII and the joy of the faithful in being able to benefit from this liturgical form. Many people have discovered or returned to the Faith thanks to this liturgy. How can we fail to notice, moreover, that the communities of the faithful attached to it are often young and flourishing, and that many Christian households, priests or religious vocations have come from it?

In the current context, we wish to reaffirm our unwavering fidelity to the successor of Peter on the one hand, and on the other, our desire to remain faithful to our Constitutions and charism, continuing to serve the faithful as we have done since our foundation. We hope to be able to count on the understanding of the bishops, whose authority we have always respected, and with whom we have always collaborated loyally.

Confident in the intercession of Our Lady and our Patron, Saint Peter, we hope to live this trial in faith and fidelity.

Family Sport Day

Sports Day at St Mary’s Wednesday 28th July (weather allowing)

(Click here for pics of a previous Sports Day.)

Meet in: Victoria Park, Knutsford Rd, WA4 1DQ, straight after Mass.

Directions: Upon entering via the main entrance, park on the right. Continue down the footpath, with the athletics stadium to the left and the play area on your right. There are rugby fields on your left. We meet on the patch of land opposite them (on your right- look for the bunting). Bring your own picnic and camping chairs/rugs.

Sports start at 2pm. We hope to finish before 4pm, though it depends a little on numbers.

Entrance fee= £2 politely requested towards costs.

All ages welcome, from tiny to tall! Bring grandparents and friends too, but please let me know the names and ages of children who will be entering so we can write some certificates in advance! 

The helpful hands of older siblings would be very much appreciated for identifying winners, writing certificates, staffing the start/finish lines, and generally keeping things running smoothly. If you would like to volunteer your older children for this, please do put them in touch! If anyone is able and willing to take responsibility for first aid, that would be great, too; please contact Alison Kahn (07840 072 641 or penketh.kahns@gmail.com)

The park is a public space, and parents are responsible for their children at all times– please keep a close eye on them!

FSSP Summer Camps 2021 Cancelled

I am afraid I need to share with you the disappointing news that we are compelled to cancel the camps again this year.

We are devastated to be taking this step for the second year in a row. As you know, I have delayed a decision as long as possible in the hope of finding a workable solution. In the end, however, even though there is due to be a relaxation of some of the Covid restrictions on 19 July, after various discussions with the venue and the governing agency, it became clear that the requirements and expectations remaining in place would simply not be acceptable.

I thank you greatly for the patience you have all shown in waiting for the final decision. I know it will come as a great disappointment – it is because I have seen for myself the desire and enthusiasm for these camps among the children that I have put off reaching this conclusion. I realise as a consequence that many of you will have disruption to travel and accommodation plans, which I do regret, but I hope you will understand that none of this has been done lightly.

May I also take this opportunity to thank our seminarians and volunteers who have given up much time and energy preparing for these camps. Please God we will see the fruit of it next year!

In the meantime, be assured of my prayers – I pray in a special way for the young people so cruelly affected by this situation.

Warrington Academy now officially confirmed.

Dear Friends,

We are delighted to announce that Regina Caeli Academy USA and UK have formally approved the start of Regina Caeli Academy (RCA) Warrington this September. This good news comes after months of diligent preparation.

Although Regina Caeli Academy is a separate entity from the Priestly Fraternity of St Peter, our Fraternity is actively committed to providing good Catholic education in various countries. Furthermore in Warrington, the building which we bought next door to our church, Priory Court, used to be a school run by the Sisters of the Cross and Passion, the female branch of Bl. Dominic Barberi’s Passionists, whose foundress Elizabeth Prout was made Venerable by Pope Francis. Therefore, RCA Warrington can rely on the full support of our Fraternity. We are very glad that good Catholic education will be offered again at St Mary’s Shrine.

RCA Warrington is still able to accept registrations for children in Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten and Grades 1 and 2 (UK Reception to Year 3) for this September. Please do spread the word and encourage any other parents who may be interested to contact Regina Caeli Academy Warrington: theacademystmarys@gmail.com.

Two of our parishioners at St Mary’s Shrine were selected as teaching staff and have received specialised training with RCA USA. They look forward to teaching the children and supporting the parents.

If you would like to support educational initiatives at St. Mary’s Warrington, please contact theacademystmarys@gmail.com.

Venerable Elizabeth Prout – pray for us!
Regina Caeli – ora pro nobis!

Fr Armand de Malleray, FSSP, Rector of St Mary’s Shrine

DEAR WORSHIPPER, this notice has been for months on our newsletter and we thank those who have taken the time to read it, meditate upon it and finally have changed their casual Sunday attire to honour God. If you read this for the first time, or if you have not yet selected the appropriate clothing as Sunday best, kindly do so before coming to Sunday Mass:

All must dress modestly in church out of reverence for God and of respect for fellow-worshippers. Chest and limbs must be covered down to elbows and knees at least. No sportswear. Sunday best should be worn by all on Sundays and feasts: suit and tie for men and boys, dresses for women and girls. Men keep their heads uncovered within church; women are encouraged to wear a scarf, hat or mantilla. Thank you.

Switch OFF your mobile phone before you enter our church. Letting it ring inside the church gravely disturbs the quiet of the sacred place. Thank you for your consideration.

Summer Camps 2021 Update – Fully Booked!

Thank you for patiently waiting further news on our summer camps this August. At this point in time, things are sadly still very unclear. However, we have been reliably informed that even if the government proceeds with the (delayed) roadmap, there will most probably still be restrictions that apply to residential youth camps. Until we know precisely what these are, it is impossible to have sufficient clarity as to whether we can go ahead.

Please note, this is not only a matter for the FSSP, but also Savio House where the camps are held, and the National Youth Agency, whose regulations the camps also need to abide by.

Therefore, it is our intention to wait until the review for the current extension of restrictions is announced – this may be by 5 July, but perhaps more realistically around 12 July to have a clearer idea of the details. Naturally, if the ongoing uncertainty is difficult, it is no problem if you wish to withdraw your booking.

As things stand, one thing that looks almost certain is that our numbers will be restricted to 30 (we can normally have 40). As a result, I must now announce that we are fully booked for both camps. If you still wish to send in booking forms, you can do so, and we will put your children on a reserve list in case of cancellations.

To receive Holy Communion: one must be a Catholic, in state of grace, one-hour fasting at least. In the EF liturgy, Holy Communion is received kneeling (unless unable to) and always on the tongue. Thank you in advance.

All must dress modestly in church out of reverence for God and of respect for fellow-worshippers. Chest and limbs must be covered down to elbows and knees at least. No sportswear. Sunday best should be worn by all on Sundays and feasts: suit and tie for men and boys, dresses for women and girls. Men keep their heads uncovered within church; women are encouraged to wear a scarf, hat or mantilla. Thank you.

Switch OFF your mobile phone before you enter our church. Letting it ring inside the church gravely disturbs the quiet of the sacred place. Thank you for your consideration.

Latest book by Fr de Malleray: printed copies available; and presentation here: http://aroucapress.com/near-missed-masses

“Can priests miss Mass? This little book light-heartedly depicts ten Holy Masses nearly missed by priests due to some opposition. From Kilimanjaro to Loch Ness, from Burma to Paris and more, the ten humorous short stories describe obstacles to the celebration of Holy Mass, thankfully overcome. The ten priests persevered, spurred by the conviction that Holy Mass: 1) honours God, whose extrinsic glory increases each time the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is offered; 2) helps souls through the temporal application of Christ’s saving merits that Holy Mass brings about; 3) fortifies priests, whose ontological raison d’être is to offer the divine Victim on the altar. Leaving aside theological arguments, Near Missed Masses entertainingly illustrates these truths through fiction.”

Praise for Near Missed Masses

In the real world, which is the world that God made, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the power station feeding the life of grace. Without such grace, we die. In this volume of true stories, Fr Armand de Malleray shows us the life-giving power of the Mass in a world darkened with devildom. The light-hearted and humorous tone of the stories makes them easily readable without ignoring the gravity of the topic. — Joseph Pearce, author of biographies of J. R. R. Tolkien, Oscar Wilde, C. S. Lewis, and G. K. Chesterton

The unusual theme that unites a good number of the stories in this compendium is a scenario with which many a freshly-ordained priest will soon become familiar—the battle royal that often ensues in the attempt to secure an altar at which the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass may be offered in an atmosphere of recollection and decorum. With tact and good humour, Father de Malleray explores the intra-ecclesial prejudices and neuroses which have given rise to such a state of affairs, and illustrates how perseverance, charity and prayer are the most effective weapons we possess against suspicion and bigotry. An edifying read for both priests and laity, which we should pray will contribute to the healing of self-inflicted wounds which for too long have hampered the Church’s mission of evangelisation. — Fr Julian Large, Provost of the London Oratory

The stories in this collection give us precious evidence of the hidden persistence of the grace of the true priestly vocation in unexpected situations. The ten narratives portray priestly candidates and priests of various ages and cultures. All reveal that secret dialogue in the soul that takes place when grace is at work. Based on my experience in teaching Thomistic philosophy to seminarians for a decade and catechesis to seminarians and priests as well as lay people, I cannot recommend this book highly enough for young Catholic men and for all those who nurture vocations, or who could, but who are not sufficiently alert to the quiet presence of the Holy Spirit in many young souls. — Dr Caroline FareyAnnunciation Catechesis

In Near Missed Masses, Fr de Malleray finds a delightfully playful and imaginative way to reinvent true contemporary stories and drive home a serious point: the value of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and the zeal that we should have to celebrate (as priests) or attend (as layfaithful) this Sacrifice worthily and frequently. In this way, the book functions like the proverbial storeroom containing things both new and old! — Fr Henry Whisenant, Diocese of East Anglia (England)
