Traditional English Mass
St. Athanasius is a Parish of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. Our mission is to serve those faithful who, out of sincere attachment to the Latin liturgical tradition, desire to celebrate the traditional Rites of the Roman Catholic Church.
Liturgy and Worship: We celebrate the Traditional English Roman Catholic Mass using a liturgy authorized by the Vatican, the Ordinariate's Divine Missal
The Missal is a definitive book of liturgical texts for the celebration of Mass in Ordinariates around the world, and has been approved and promulgated by the Vatican. It is based on classic Anglican prayer books but is fully traditional in Latin Rite rubrics and Roman Catholic in content.
Key Elements of the Traditional English Mass according to the Divine Worship Missal include the following:
High Mass with Incense
Mass celebrated "Ad Orientum"
Prayers at the Foot of the Altar
Traditional Hymns with Choir and Pipe Organ
Communion in both kinds received kneeling and on the tongue
Sacred Chant in English and Latin
