  2. Birmingham is not London, but in the Midlands. We are not quite as fortunate as London in terms of Tridentine masses offered, and the London Oratory is also of greater scale and more traditional than our Birmingham Oratory. But we are indeed very fortunate to have what we do. I read a good article about the Faith in Scotland on the Una Voce website, and pray that the situation there will improve. I was in Scotland over the summer (Dumfries and Galloway) and was inspired by the story of St. Ninian. We visited the lovely town of Girvan, and heard Sunday Mass said by the lovely Canon Eugene Mathews. He used to travel down the coast to say a Tridentine Mass, but is now too old to do so. The danger is this venerable Rite dying out, which is what many Bishops seem to desire.

    Fear not! The tide is turning, and Christ will not leave you comfortless.

    I have great hopes that the FSSP, IofCtheK, Good Shepherd, etc., will make grat inroads in Great Britain, as in my country.

    And I say this as one who attends the Novus Ordo.

    Beautiful blog, beautiful family.

    God bless you!

  7. Matt,

    Of course! Silly me. Birmingham is a fine town, and in the midlands. You know, we used to go through Girvan when I was small, when we used to visit Edinburgh from Galloway.

    I'm praying this motu proprio helps. Now, that's an interesting-looking article--I'll read it in a bit.

    Thanks,
    Mark
