Pilgrimage to Carey, Ohio with Latin High Mass

On Saturday, October 3rd, the traditional feast of St. Therese of Lisieux, there will be a Solemn High Mass offered at the Shrine of Our Lady of Consolation in Carey, Ohio.

This will be the first time in 45 years that the high altar will be used for the Sacrifice of the Mass.

Please come and join our friends from St. Joseph Church, Toledo, as they offer thanksgiving, prayer, and sacrifice in honor of Our Lady and the Little Flower.

Traditional Confirmation at Holy Family

On April 29th, Msgr. Stephan Maloney, Vicar General of the Diocese of Columbus conferred the sacrament of Confirmation in the extraordinary form of the Roman Rite on young adults of Holy Family parish. What is really extraordinary about this event is the fact that most of the students requested the sacrament be conferred in the extraordinary form.

The pastor, Fr. Kevin Lutz, helped Msgr. Maloney prepare for the Latin liturgy and, with very few stumbles, the event was a beautiful success.

Although this parish is not a completely extraordinary form community, it speaks volumes that a diocesan parish, with a diocesan priest, and a mix of English and Latin Mass families came together for this sacrament in the ancient rite.

Memorial Day Requiem Mass offered for Veterans

On Monday, May 25th, a small crowd of worshippers gathered for an outdoor Requiem High Mass in honor of all veterans of the military services, fallen and deceased. Fr. Kevin Lutz of Holy Family Church offered the Mass with the support of acolytes and the Una Voce Schola Cantorum. Veterans and many families came to offer prayers for these heroes in an extraordinary way- by praying the traditional Requiem Mass.

After the Mass, Fr. Lutz offered the prayers of Absolution and all sang the In Paradisum.

Una Voce Silent Retreat A Success

Una Voce Columbus sponsored a silent retreat on February 20-22, 2009. Our retreat master was Father Joseph Tuscan, OFM Cap. who spoke on the theological virtues of faith, hope, and love- especially how they concern those involved in preserving the Extraordinary Form of the Latin Rite. The retreat was a complete success, and we are so very grateful to Fr. Joseph for his valuable time.
