The Saint Catherine's Trust Summer School took place last week: It runs from Sunday to Sunday. Numbers have gone up every year for several years, and we welcomed thirty-nine children this year. There was a full minibus load from London, and nine travelled by train from Scotland.
The Summer School exposes children to a week of Traditional Liturgy, which they would only otherwise experience by visiting a Monastery. We have a Sung, usually High, Mass every day, and Sung Compline each evening,
Benediction is twice in the Week; each day begins with The Rosary.
We always have Stations of The Cross on Friday.
The following Text is from
2017 Summer School.

My children used to sing "Come by car, Lord" followed by "Come by bus" and "Come by train". However they drew the line at "Come by bike" as the felt it to be lacking in respect.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Frederick Jones, for your most welcome Comment.
ReplyDeleteYour children are, indeed, adept at discerning (without being told otherwise) that some things in the "New Mass" are, shall we say, lacking in respect to God Almighty.
Modernism has many, many, failings. This is just one.
