Solemn High Mass at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception

Mark your calendars! As announced on their website, the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter "will be making their annual pilgrimage of reparation to the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, DC, to thank Our Lady, patroness of America for all the graces she has showered upon us, particularly in the recent visit of his Holiness Pope Benedict XVI, and to make reparation for all the sins of our nation."

"Concluding their 3-day pilgrimage along the C&O canal, the kind permission of the Rector, Msrg. Rossi, having been granted, they will celebrate a Solemn High Mass on the main altar of the Crypt chapel in the Basilca at 6 pm, Saturday, June 7th. The celebrant will be the newly ordained Rev. Jonathan Romanoski FSSP."

Fr. Romanoski is one of the four new priests that was ordained by His Eminence Dario Cardinal Castrillon Hoyos in May.

As this Facebook event has put it, this is "The Solemn High Mass you really don't want to miss!" It will be the first Traditional Latin Solemn High Mass to be held in the Crypt Church in over 40 years.

Deo gratias!
