Treasure Valley Latin Mass Society: September 2024

Wednesday, September 4, 2024

The next Traditional Latin Mass, Sunday September 15, 2024 (Note schedule change)

The Traditional Latin Mass celebrating the 17^th Sunday after Pentecost, The Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary, will be held on September 15, 2024, at 3:00 pm at the old St. Paul’s Catholic Church, 810 15th Avenue South, Nampa, ID 83651.

September's TLM is moved to September 15th (The Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary), or 3rd week of the month, since Father will be out of state the week before. It will be a High Mass.

Update:

There will be food and drinks after Mass in the Hall under the Church. The entrance is to the right of the Church through the first gate and then through the glass doors. Please feel free to bring food and drinks to share. Donations are appreciated.

Please come to the Mass, and encourage others to attend, and bring a friend!

Please pray to St. Joseph for the increase of the Traditional Latin Mass in the Treasure Valley and the establishment of an FSSP Shrine, Chapel or mission, or Institute of Christ the King and Sovereign Priest. We pray also for Fr Brady, Fr Vogel, and Bishop Christensen.

"What earlier generations held as sacred, remains sacred and great for us too, and it cannot be all of a sudden entirely forbidden or even considered harmful. It behooves all of us to preserve the riches which have developed in the Church’s faith and prayer, and to give them their proper place." - Summorum Pontificum, Pope Benedict XVI

"The ancient liturgy, with its poignant symbols and innumerable subtleties, is a prolonged courtship of the soul, enticing and drawing it onwards, leading it along a path to the mystical marriage, the wedding feast of heaven." Resurgent in the Midst of Crisis: Sacred Liturgy, the Traditional Latin Mass, and Renewal in the Church, Peter Kwasniewski

Please park in the school yard. Gates will be opened by 1:30pm.

There has been a problem with the Montessori Catechesis of the Good Shepherd atrium, which is in the back of the Church on both sides, having things disturbed and moved. Please make sure your children do not go in those areas. The stuff is very attractive to young children as it is designed for them.

In the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts with the Pure Heart of St Joseph,

Maximilian Mohun, OPL

St. Joseph Chapter

Why the Mass of All Time

The Traditional Roman Rite is the liturgy of the Catholic Church in use before the reforms of the Second Vatican Council. This includes the Mass, the Sacraments, various rites of blessing and more.

On July 7th 2007, His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI issued an apostolic letter called Summorum Pontificum. In this letter he declared that older form of the Roman rite was never abrogated, and that it “must be given due honor for its venerable and ancient usage.” (SP Art. 1)

His Holiness termed the traditional Latin Mass – the older form – the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite. This older form has been in use for many centuries. During this time it was at the heart of the Church and Western culture, nourishing countless generations.
