Friars' videos of St. Joseph's, Bruslem

I only recently discovered these videos (which the friars, in their humility, never mentioned).

In them Fra. Solanus FI, one of the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate who run the parish in Burslem and offer the Traditional Latin Mass almost every day, gives a guided tour of the area around the church and its interior.





On the Air Maria youtube channel there are many videos of sermons by FFI priests all over the world, including a fair few by Fr. Agnellus Murphy FI, the prior and parish priest in Burslem.

Family Day at St Joseph's

Next Sunday (Palm Sunday) will once again be family day at St. Joseph's. The theme for this month is 'The Divine Mercy'. The day starts at 2.30pm at St Joseph's presbytery (next door to the church). The day includes prayers and devotions, workshops and time for recreation and socialising. All are welcome, and I believe (though I haven't yet been to one) that there is something for everyone; it's not only aimed at families with young children.
The day concludes with Exposition, Rosary and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament at 4.30pm, followed by the usual 6pm Latin Mass.

Starting 'Em Young!

Recent High Mass at St. Joseph's Burslem as featured in the current (Feb. 2012) issue of the LMS quarterly Mass of Ages.

There are a number of young servers assisting regularly at Masses, some as with the boatboy seen here as young as 5 and 6!
