THE EXTRAORDINARY IN NORTHWESTERN VERMONT

Out of the Remove has very positive review of the Extraordinary Form of the Mass as celebrated last Wednesday at St. Joseph's Co-Cathedral in Burlington, VT, by Bishop Salvatore Matano. RSCT to Argent. Nearly a thousand people were in attendance! They were only expecting 300-400 people.

To the skeptics: Only a few will come, eh? Re-read the last two sentences in the above paragraph.

The bishop comments, "if this is what it takes to fill our Churches, so be it." Good, now maybe he can lose the folk groups that take up two (sometimes all) of the three weekend Masses at the Co-Cathedral. I would hope for a better example coming from a Co-Cathedral.

Peace,
