Report: First Weekly Latin Mass in Cork

Posted by verbumpatris on October 5, 2009

An important event took place at the parish of Ss. Peter and Paul’s, Cork City, Ireland on Sunday 4th October 2009. From that Sunday, Mass in the Extraordinary Form at 12noon is now a regular part of the parochial schedule of Sundays Masses in that parish. As such, the parish is the first in the Munster Province, which covers the South of Ireland, to provide Mass in the Extraordinary Form every Sunday for the faithful. To mark this development, a Missa Solemnis was offered at 12noon on Sunday 4th October by the Parish Priest, Father Patrick McCarthy. Ss. Peter and Paul’s, designed by Edward Welby Pugin, also celebrates the 150th Anniversary of its Laying of the Foundation Stone this year.
