Sad News-Canons Regular of the New Jerusalem Leaving St. Louis

...or so it appears. For the next year, at least, unless something changes in the meantime, the Prior, the Very Rev. Dom Daniel Augustine Oppenheimer, tells us that they will be absent with the fraters in Rome studying and the Prior in California, teaching.

The latest newsletter (pages below) explain the situation which many had hoped could have been rectified.

This means that the St Louis Archdiocese will now have only one community which celebrates the "extraordinary" form of the Holy Mass and Sacraments for the forseeable future.

Please keep the Canaons and the affected faithful in your prayers that our Almighty Father in Heaven might provide some means for the Canons to remain in or, at least return to, the Archdiocese.





HT to Ken for the updates!
