2019) 12 noon, Holy Ghost Church, Knoxville 8 am, St. Mary Church, Athens THE THIRD SUNDAY AFTER THE EPIPHANY The Sundays after Epiphany—preceding
the pre-Lenten Sunday of Septuagesima—are the initial Sundays of the Tempus per Annum (“time during the year”),
which on the ordinary form calendar is (mis)translated in English as
“ordinary time”. These are the Sundays of the year which don’t belong to
special liturgical seasons like Advent, Lent, etc. Each of the Gospels for these Sundays
after Epiphany presents a particular manifestation (or “epiphany”) of the
Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ. On this Third Sunday after Epiphany
we recall His manifestation of His
divinity by the miracles of curing a leper and a servant paralyzed with
palsy, as described in this Sunday’s Gospel (Matthew
8:1-13): Jesus, with a word, cleanses a leper. And behold a leper came and adored him, saying: Lord, if thou wilt,
thou canst make me clean. And Jesus
stretching forth his hand, touched him, saying: I will, be thou made clean.
And forthwith his leprosy was cleansed. (Matthew
8:2-3)
Jesus cures
the centurion’s servant at a distance. And when he had entered into Capharnaum, there came to him a centurion,
beseeching him, And saying, Lord,
my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, and is grieviously tormented. And Jesus saith to him: I will come and
heal him. And
the centurion making answer, said: Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldst
enter under my roof: but only say the word, and my servant shall be healed.
. . . And Jesus said to the
centurion: Go, and as thou hast believed, so be it done to thee. And the
servant was healed at the same hour. (Matthew 8:5-8,13)
SHELTER AND PEACE IN THE GROTTO OF
SANITY “When the day comes
where you bury your head in your hands and say, ‘This cannot be right,’ start
your search for the nearest Latin Mass. “I am talking here
about Mass in the ‘extraordinary form,’ the Tridentine Mass, the usus
antiquior, the Mass according to the Roman Missal promulgated by St. John
XXIII in 1962, the ‘traditional Latin Mass.’ “You will find in
the traditional Latin Mass a shelter from the storm, a place to rest from the
turmoil. The traditional Latin Mass is a grotto of sanity, where the holy
angel from Heaven guards, cherishes, protects, visits, and defends all who
are assembled in that place. “The storm and
turmoil of which I speak . . . [continue reading here]

support of Latin liturgy typically average several hundred dollars weekly.
This includes a regular KLMC contribution of $200 per week to Holy Ghost
Church to support the Latin Mass (and specifically our exemplary sacred music
program), plus additional expenses for purchase of vestments, choir support,
Latin Mass materials, stipends for visiting priests, and special occasions. All these expenses are covered solely by
donations directly to the KLMC (rather than by the general parish budget). So
please use the special addressed Knoxville Latin Mass Community envelopes, or
donate online (here). ONLINE WEEKLY LATIN MASS NEWSLETTER |
