TWO CANCELLATIONS June 3 & 4

 

Unfortunately there are two cancellation this week.  Fr. Dykes is in Valladolid and we have not got a priest for the usual First Friday 7pm Mass at St. Wulstan’s, Wolstanton.  Next First Friday Mass there will be 1^st July (please note the following Sunday 3 July is the annual LMS Pilgrimage to Holywell).

Father Chavasse is undergoing more treatment so the Mass this coming Saturday morning is cancelled.  We should have Fr. Stephen Goodman for the 6 pm Sunday Mass (June 5) which may be a Missa Cantata.

UPDATE MAY & JUNE

Unfortunately there will not be a local Mass for the traditional Feast Of Corpus Christi in the EF form.  There will be Masses in New Brighton (Ss Peter Paul & Philomena) and St Mary’s (FSSP) in Warrington, but I have not found out any times other than the usual morning Mass times as yet.

 

We may also be struggling for a First Friday Mass on 3 June, though we have a replacement for Fr. Chavasse (further treatment, poor man) for the Mass at Swynnerton on Sunday 5 June.  Almost certainly we will have a Mass for Ss Peter & Paul, June 29.

 

Feast of the ASCENSION Mass 5 May

There will be a Mass for the Feast of the Ascension, Thursday 5 May at Our Lady's Church Swynnerton near Stone, at 6pm.  Our thanks to Fr. Paul Chavasse.

There are also Latin Masses on the following three days:
First Friday, 6 May, 7 pm, at St. Wulstan's, Wolstanton near Stoke-on-Trent (Fr. Dykes)
Saturday fortnightly Mass at Our Lady's, Swynnerton 10 am May 7
Sunday (weekly) at Swynnerton, 8 May at 6 pm.

Forthcoming Masses & Inaugural Mass at FSSP Church Warrington 21 Nov

Partly this is to remind us of the 7 pm Low Mass for the Feast of All Souls at Our Lady’s Swynnerton at 7 pm this evening, as well as the fortnightly Mass at Swynnerton  this Saturday (7^th.) at 10 am, and the First Friday Mass at St. Wulstan’s, Wolstanton at 7 pm on 6 Nov.

However, the following Sat. morning Mass at Swynnerton may be cancelled as Fr. Chavasse and a number of us may be attending the Inaugural Mass of the FSSP taking over the Church of St. Mary’s Warrington T 12 NOON on Sat. 21 Nov.  Please check (phone 01270-768144/e-mail) close to the day if you are intending to attend the 21 Nov.

Low Mass Feast of All Souls 2 Nov

There is a Low Mass in the Traditional Rite on the Feast of All Souls, Nov. 2, at 7 pm at Our Lady of the Assumption Church, Swynnerton.   The following Friday, Nov. 6, there is a First Friday Low Mass at 7 pm at St. Wulstan’s Church, Wolstanton.

 Visit to Rome with LMS and Una Voce

I got back from Rome two days ago where members of the LMS and Una Voce International (Jamie Bogle wasn’t re-elected as President, but Joseph Shaw was as Treasurer) were among an international procession of hundreds, perhaps over 1,000, of traditionalists led by many clerics through the streets of Rome to St. Peter’s, where Solemn High Mass was celebrated in the Traditional Rite in the chapel beneath the Holy Paraclete window.  LMS and Una Voce members and guests were addressed by Cardinal Pell at a dinner in his honour.

 

CANCELLATION SWYNNERTON MASS 27 SEPT. 2015

Unfortunately, the Trad. Rite Mass at Our Lady’s Swynnerton this Sunday (6pm 27 Sept. 2015) is cancelled.  It’s just one of those things when possible replacement priests have commitments already, and it may well have been a low turn out with one of the altar boys being confirmed in the ICKSP Church in Preston.

 

There is Low Mass this Saturday 26 Sept at 10 am and fortnightly thereafter (10, 24 Oct …) and usual Sunday Mass at Swynnerton on Sunday Oct. 4^th. at 6 pm.  First Friday Mass at St. Wulstan’s, Wolstanton, on 2 Oct. is at 7 pm.
