Traditional Latin Mass in Newton

The Archdiocese of Boston has moved its Traditional Latin Mass to Mary Immaculate of Lourdes parish in Newton.

It used to be at Holy Trinity, downtown, but Holy Trinity was slated for closing, so now the parish in Newton hosts it. Holy Trinity was a beautiful old church, built by German immigrants, but it looked like it was in need of serious maintenance.

According to the Globe, ithe Mass draws 200+ additional parishioners from throughout the New England, so it has been a shot in the arm for the parish.

It also makes it a little closer to me should I decide to go there for the old mass. I usually go to Holy Name, in Providence, when I do go, but that has been infrequent this year.
