Traditional mailing list for Southern California



Please send this link to everyone interested in the Latin Mass, and please take some time to fill out the form, even if you are already involved some way with the Latin Mass:

Hello All,

My name is Charles Coulombe. For those of you who don't know, I have been a Master of Ceremonies for the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite for over 15 years, and have been serving the Latin Mass since 1993. Coming from a Military Family, I have had the luxury of going to several parts of the US and during this time, I have the honor of training under some great MC's and priests, including those by the Fraternity of Saint Peter. While in Los Angeles, I have had the opportunity serve as Vice President for Una Voce LA and Board Member for Una Voce Ventura. I have also trained dozens of Altar Servers and even a few priests in the Mass, and other Ceremonies such as Benediction, Processions, Baptisms, and Confirmations.

When Pope Benedict XVI issued an Apostolic Letter on the celebration of the Roman Rite according to the Missal of 1962, it was a very good day for the church, as ever since people could celebrate the Traditional Latin Masses throughout the world in the comfort of their own parishes.

Now, over six years later, with the Summorum Pontificum still in force, there are still many people in our area that live over two hours away from a Tridentine Mass, or Mass of the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite, the EFM. I am taking this survey to find out more about people who live in Southern California, and who would like a Tridentine Mass in their area. The list would also serve as a contact list whenever special Masses are in the area for those to go to.

Please take some minutes to fill out this form, and also to send it to everyone you know who may be interested in the Mass, or may be already involved in the Tridentine Mass in some form or way. I would really like to learn about other people as my goal in the next few years will be to reach out to people and bring more Tridenting Masses in the area.

Also, if you are a priest, a seminarian, or other lay member with certain specialties, or may be interested in Serving or Chanting, I would like to know as well.

Here is the link. Again feel free to forward this to everyone. Communication is a vital tool. This list is intended for folks in Southern California, but anyone can fill out this form. Any information given will be kept strictly confidential.

Yours in Christ,
