At Our Lady of Victories, Harrington Park NJ there is a Latin Low Mass every Sunday at 8:15 am

There will be an Extraordinary Form Mass for the Feast of St. Therese on Thursday, October 3 at 7:30 at St. Mary Church, Greenwich, CT

In a letter dated September 4th, 2019, Archbishop Leonard Blair of Hartford has announced that the Institute of Christ King Sovereign Priest will administer St. Patrick Church, 50 Charles St., Waterbury, CT beginning on October 27, 2019.

In 2017 St. Patrick parish had been combined with St. Joseph parish to form a new parish, St. Blaise. In his letter, the Archbishop states that St. Patrick and St. Joseph will once again become separate parishes. All Masses at St. Patrick’s will be celebrated according to the Extraordinary Form, except for the 4 pm vigil Mass on Saturdays. At that Mass, the Ordinary Form will continue to be celebrated, with various priests from the Archdiocese as celebrants.

A fervent long-time supporter of the Traditional Mass and, until very recently, a member of St. Mary Church, Norwalk, Barbara Rickman passed away suddenly on Wednesday, August 21. A Solemn Requiem Mass will be offered on Thursday, August 29 at 11 am at the Oratory of Sts. Cyril and Methodius in Bridegport, CT. Fr. Richard Cipolla will be celebrant. David Hughes will direct the music.

A resident of Naugatuck, Barbara made the long journey to attend the Traditional Mass at St. Mary Norwalk from the time it was first on the schedule in 2007. Prior to that, she attended the Traditional Mass when it was at St. Mary, Stamford. A woman with a deep knowledge and love of Catholic Tradition and a strong prayer life, Barbara’s last words, at least to me, were about prayer. She wrote in an email on the morning of her death that she would be praying for St. Mary’s Church along with a rosary group that would meet that evening, even though she could not attend in person. “I shall do what Our Lord has asked me to do and that is pray for all of your efforts tonight at the Parish Council meeting.” I  am sure that she did pray.

We extend our sympathy to her husband of 35 years, Robert Rickman, her father Euga Jackson, and her two sons Chris and Brian.
