Re: Status & Sustainability Plan of the Pastoral Care for the TLM Community in St. Mary’s County
Message:
This recaps last-night’s conversation. I’ll present it to Anthony after you’ve reviewed it and indicated any mistakes or needed corrections.
In response to the express interest of parishioners, the pastors of three local parishes in Saint Mary’s County have been making the TLM available to the faithful according to the following plan:
Current Status:
St. Cecilia’s:
- Sunday afternoons.
- Weekday evenings (Mondays and Wednesdays).
St. John’s:
- Sunday afternoons.
St. Joseph’s:
- Sunday evenings.
- Weekday mornings (Wednesdays and Saturdays).
Going Forward:
St. Cecilia’s:
- Sundays, suspending the celebration of the TLM, unless there is no campus Mass at St. Mary’s College, i.e. during school vacations.
- Weekdays, to continue celebrating the TLM when not otherwise binating, due to the parish/school/funeral mass.
St. John’s:
- Sundays, suspending the celebration of the TLM, until a parochial vicar should be assigned there, then to resume the TLM.
St. Joseph’s:
- Sundays, to continue celebrating the TLM in the evenings.
- Weekdays, to continue celebrating the TLM when not otherwise binating, due to the parish/school/funeral mass.
