First Friday and First Saturday TLM at St. Albert the Great

The following information appears on the website of the Latin Liturgy Association.

First Friday Confessions, February 3rd, A.D. 2012, will be heard at 6:30 p.m. followed by 7 p.m.. TLM offered by Fr. Gerald Carey of St. Paul’s Parish.

First Saturday Confessions, February 4, A.D. 2012, will be heard at 8:45 a.m. followed by 9:15 a.m. TLM offered by Fr. Dominick Finn, O.S.F.S., at St. Albert the Great Rectory Chapel, whose schedule requires that he be fifteen (15) minutes behind our normal First Saturday schedule.

It may be noteworthy to the readers of the Latin Liturgy Association Philadelphia Chapter website to learn that the First Friday and First Saturday TLM’s at St. Albert The Great Parish, Huntingdon Valley, Pa. are the only continuously scheduled, canonically regular, First Fri. & First Sat. TLM’s offered in the entire Archdiocese of Philadelphia. There are no others known to me within the Archdiocese; (with well-wishes to other distant locations, Mater Ecclesiae is in the Diocese of Camden, New Jersey, and the SSPX, in Eddystone, and Rome are attempting to resolve the Society’s canonical status).

Thank you for publicizing these First Friday and First Saturday TLM’s at St. Albert The Great Parish, 212 Welsh Road, Huntingdon Valley, Montgomery County, Pa. 19006 (T) 215-947-3500.
