Attack on traditional Mass an attack on diversity: Our parish diversity is one reality embracing all liturgies


We offer the Mass in English as launched after Vatican II once per week on Sundays so that we do not marginalize or exclude anyone in the Church. Some parishioners attend both liturgies, new and old.

This photo taken May 15th after the weekly 9 am Sunday English-language Mass. The diversity of people in the parish is inseparable from the diversity of liturgies. Take away the traditional liturgy and the lives of these faithful, who more often attend Mass in English, are negatively impacted as well. Each is always part of the whole.

     If the traditional Masses at the parish are eliminated, as has been proposed, these diverse parishioners will be disadvantaged because unable to alone support the parish monthly budget.
