SPRINGDALE – The Latin Mass community in Northwest Arkansas now has its own home. The newly established parish of Our Lady of Sorrows celebrated its first Mass on the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe Dec. 12 in Springdale.
The apostolate of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter will oversee the parish as well as St. John the Baptist Church in Cabot. All Masses are in Latin and follow the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.
The Traditionalist blogosphere is abuzz, again, with the story of the latest “injustice” done to Catholics who are devoted to Mass in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite. A letter from the bishop of Fort Worth, TX, dated February 24, 2014, to Mr. Michael King, president of Fisher More College, was leaked to the Rorate Caeli blog; the letter from Bishop Michael Olson states: 1. You do not have permission to have the public celebration of the Extraordinary Form of the Mass at the Chapel of Fisher More College. This includes Sundays and weekdays. The weekly celebration of the Extraordinary Form is available to the faithful every Sunday at St. Mary of the Assumption Catholic Church in Fort Worth.
