(Above and below) In the rectory: initial prayers and the vesting with buskins and episcopal sandals.

The church of St Mary was standing room only – and many had to remain standing in the vestibule. The Traditionalist movement pays a price for its own success now and then!

We received enthusiastic letter from one of our readers about St. Mary’s Church in Roslyn Harbor, NY.

“Your members might be interested in a wonderful series of sung Latin Masses offered at St. Mary’s in Roslyn Harbor in Nassau County. Fr. McCartney generally picks one special feast each month, on a weekday, to offer these. His homilies are fantastic. Will give a link to the schedule below.
Fr. McCartney, the pastor, is also inviting boys to come at 6:15 on the evenings of these Masses to learn to serve. All the boys who come, even if they are totally new to this, get to vest, process, and participate.”

All Masses are at 7 pm.  The next will be on Easter Wednesday, April 19.
