Traditional Requiem in Ireland

A Requiem Mass in the traditional Latin rite will be offered for the repose of the soul of His Holiness, Pope John Paul II at the Church of the Assumption, Batterstown, Co. Meath at 8pm on Wednesday, 13 April 2005. This Mass takes place at the request of the Latin Mass Society of Ireland.

The celebrant will be Father Michael Cahill, C.C., Batterstown who is Spiritual Advisor to the Latin Mass Society of Ireland. The Bishop of Meath, Most Rev. Michael Smith, has approved of Father Cahill's acting in this capacity as it reflects the wishes of the late Holy Father to accommodate traditionally minded Catholics within communion of the Catholic Church following the 1988 schism with Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre and his Society of St. Pius X.


This Mass in Dublin has already taken place. But for the record:

A Sung Mass (Missa Cantata) according to the traditional Latin rite will be celebrated for the repose of the soul of His Holiness Pope John Paul II at 7.30pm on Wednesday the 6th of April in St Audoen's Church, High St. (near Christchurch Cathedral), Dublin 8. The Celebrant will be Fr Flanagan O. Carm. St Audoen's is the site of the traditional liturgical apostolate of the Dublin Diocese, and operates under the permission granted by Pope John Paul in his motu proprio Ecclesia Dei adflicta (1988)
