On Sunday 25 October, the traditional Feast of Christ the King, Fr. Peter Lee celebrated surely the very first Traditional Latin Mass – a Missa Cantata ever offered in the Church of St. Patrick, built in the 1960’s.

He was helped by altar boys from the Reedsburg, WI, area where Fr. Lee was last assigned was as well as some fellows from St. Mary’s Oratory in Rockford, IL.  A team effort.
