CONTINUING ATTEMPT / MASSES SITUATION

There seems to be some life in the blog, but I'm not convinced it is working again. However, for the moment, the situation regarding Masses (also listed in LMS magazine and LMS blog)is that at Our Lady's Swynnerton the parish Mass at 6pm every Sunday continues, and the 10am fortnightly Mass on Saturday morning id resumed,next is Oct. 2. There is a weekly Mass at St. Augustine's, Meir, Stoke, each Wednesday evening at 7pm. Fr. Stefak celebrated his first Missa Cantata last Wednesday, and there is scheduled to be another next Wednesday, 29 Sept.

Fr Kazimierz Stefek's Order

In the LMS Mass of Ages magazine just out, the Report for N. Staffs refers to Fr. K., the parish priest of St. Augustine's, Meir, newly celebrating a weekly Old Rite Mass, as belonging to the Order of St. Paul the Hermit, the OPSEE, which should in fact be the OSPPE. Apologies, and looking forward to Fr. K. next celebrating in his church at 7pm 26 Aug. when he returns from visiting family in Poland (The OSPPE run the National Marian shrine of Jasna Gora there).
