Archdiocese of Philadelphia Sacred Triduum Latin Liturgies

Please remember the liturgies of the Sacred Triduum will be held in the Extraordinary Form (Traditional Latin Mass) at Holy Trinity Catholic Church at 6th and Spruce Streets, Philadelphia, PA.

Holy Thursday - 7 pm
Good Friday - 5pm
Holy Saturday (Easter Vigil) - 5pm

Holy Trinity is the only parish in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia to offer these liturgies in the Extraordinary Form. 

Never been to the TLM before? Please don't let that keep you from attending one or all of these celebrations of Our Lord's Passion, Death and Resurrection. For many of us, including the blog administrator, this will be the first time we have had the privilege to assist at these sacred liturgies in the Extraordinary Form.  

Let us show our love for Our Lord and our appreciation for Father Check, all of the priests in the TLM rotation and the Altar Guild of St Stephen by filling the pews of Holy Trinity to capacity during this most solemn Triduum. 

On-street parking will be available with permit.  Simply pick up a yellow placard in the rear of the church and display on your windshield. 

If you have questions or need assistance, please email the blog administrator at:
Jroman16@verizon.net. 

Thank you and God bless you!

Weekday Low Mass During Lent at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church

Monday thru Friday during Lent, there is a 7AM Low Mass (Dialogue Mass) at our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church.  Our Lady of Lourdes is located at the intersection of 63rd Street and Lancaster Avenue and is convenient to public transportation.  It is very close to St. Charles Seminary and St. Joseph's University.  The blog administrator will update if this Mass will continue after Lent.
