Aguinaldo Masses to be held in Baguio Cathedral Oratory

The Vicar General Msgr. Andres Cosalan, Jr. (who heads the Tridentine Masses in the Diocese of Baguio) has announced yesterday (November 29, 2009) that Aguinaldo Masses are to be held in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite starting December 16 at 5 o'clock in the morning. These are to be held in the Cathedral Oratory and are to be in line with the traditional Rorate Masses where Aguinaldo Masses originated from. This will give the faithful a better way of "tuning-in" on the mystery of the Incarnation and will be a different way of celebrating Missa de Gallo than was accustomed (i.e, the overfilled church with many people clamoring and chattering among the faithful gathered for Mass). Because it is in the Tridentine Rite, many are expecting for it to be more solemn and more meaningful.

WE hope to update you more on this. God bless you.
