Is this the beautiful little church that sits beside the Hancock Tower in Boston?

I will continue to pray for a miracle but if they close Holy Trinity, I’ll drive to Still River. Yes, Pope Benedict’s motu proprio has done wonderful things here in the Archdiocese of Boston, still just one church which celebrates the TLM every Sunday but hey, the SSPX has opened another chapel in the diocese.

That’s progress.

Thanks Cardinal Sean!

Holy Trinity is the only church in Boston to offer the traditional Latin Mass on Sundays and Holy Days of obligation. I understand there are two churches, one in East Boston and one in Brighton (those are parts of the City of Boston) that offer the Latin Mass but not as the regular Sunday or Holy Day Mass where one can fullfil his obligation.

As was noted in the original posting, there is a Latin Mass in Newton. It's not that far from Boston by car. But—and this is something that readers not from Boston wouldn't know—many persons in Boston do no drive. We get to church on foot or by bus, trolley, or subway. There are trolley and buses to Newton, but they don't get you to that church. And the travel time would be considerable, depending on where in Boston one lives the trip could be well over an hour each way.
