Sung Votive Mass of St. Philip Neri 
in the Traditional Roman Rite


Because of circumstances beyond our control, we could not celebrate the feast day of our holy patron, St. Philip Neri, on May 26. Therefore we honor him belatedly with a votive sung Mass. This Traditional Latin Mass  will be celebrated at St. John the Evangelist church in Encinitas. The brothers will sing the proper and ordinary in Gregorian chant. Please join us.

Vespers for the XVIII Sunday after Pentecost
with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament

Hebdomadary: Rev. Fr. Peter Navarra

8086 Broadway, Lemon Grove, CA 91945

Join us at St. John of the Cross church in Lemon Grove to celebrate traditional Vespers in Gregorian chant!  Thus writes St. Hilary of  Poitiers (c. 300 – c. 368)  about the healing  of the paralytic, which we find in the Gospel of the 18th Sunday after Pentecost: In this paralytic the whole Gentile world is offered for healing, he is therefore brought by the ministration of Angels; he is called Son, because he is God’s work; the sins of his soul which the Law could not remit are remitted him; for faith only justifies. Lastly, he shews the power of the resurrection, by taking up his bed, teaching that all sickness shall then be no more found in the body.
