DC is becoming extraordinary!
Two announcements related to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass being celebrated in the DC area:
On Saturday, April 24th, Dario Cardinal Castrillón Hoyos, President Emeritus of the Pontifical Commission “Ecclesia Dei”, will celebrate the Extraordinary Form of the Mass at the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. I imagine it will be breathtaking.
On an even more local note, the pastor of my own parish, St. John Neumann in Gaithersburg, MD, will begin celebrating the Extraordinary Form of the Mass weekly at 5pm on Sundays starting on Feb. 21st (the First Sunday in Lent). He will begin by celebrating the low mass, and he hopes to move to a Missa Cantata (basically a low mass with a choir) by Easter.
If you are in the area, try to make an effort to attend!
