Petition to Save Ushaw Seminary

Leo Darroch, President of Una Voce International and Paul Waddington, treasurer of the LMS and arranger of Priest-Training Courses in the Traditional Rite, have been very active in trying to set up a business plan to save Ushaw College which the Trustees (bishops) are dismissing, seemingly being intent on selling off the mighty, historic College Seminary. Leo has set up a petition which we are invited to sign as part of a clear groundswell of support to save the Seminary. Please add your name; the website is:

Midnight Mass St. Joseph's Burslem

The sung Midnight Mass at St. Joseph's, Hall St., Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent will be preceded by a Carol Service including meditations. This will commence at 11.15 p.m., Christmas Eve. This is probably the first Mass in the Traditional Rite actually at Midnight in the region for many years.

Low Mass 19 Dec. Stoke-on-Trent

Fr. Tynan has arranged to celebrate a Low Mass at a 'new' venue: 3 p.m. this Sunday 19 Dec. at Our Lady of the Angels and St. Peter in Chains, Hartshill Road, Stoke-on-Trent (very distinctive church on right-hand side up the hill out of Stoke).

This is probably a 'one-off', though Fr. Tynan hopes to arrange Low Masses on Sundays at 3 pm once a month at Stone (St. Dominic's, second Sunday) and Cheadle (St. Giles, third Sunday). His contact number is 01782-312704).

Low Mass Change

There will be a Low Mass at St. Dominic's, Stone at 3 p.m. on 12th. December. This is, as it were, a replacement for the 19 Dec. Mass at Cheadle which is cancelled.

There should be Masses each second Sunday at St. Dominic's, Stone and each third Sunday at St. Giles, Cheadle, in the coming year, both at 3 pm. These will be arranged by Fr. Tynan (01728-312704).
