Liturgical parody

 

A symphatiser of Pro Tridentina (Malta) sent the below photo taken inside the Church of St. Francis of Assisi in Villambrosa, Ħamrun. This is the latest example of how the liturgy in Malta is being ridiculed. One assumes that this was acceptable to the Archdiocese of Malta.

EXCLUSIVE: Tridentine Mass to be celebrated in Malta every Sunday!

 

Sources close to this Blog have confirmed that this year a petition reached the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, asking for Tridentine Mass to start being held regularly in Malta.

The Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei (PCED) has replied and is liaising with the Archdiocese of Malta to establish the Tridentine Mass on a permanent basis in Malta. The emphasis is that Mass will be celebrated every Sunday.

A parish in the South of Malta has already been identified.

BREAKING NEWS: Malta's new Archbishop - Pro Tridentina (Malta) proven right?

Some weeks ago, this Blog had indicated who the contenders for the post of Archbishop of Malta were, in this article. 

In today's Times of Malta, Archbishop Joseph Spiteri is mentioned as the likely candidate. This confirms what we had stated, namely that the Archbishop could be:

a bishop held in high esteem, both locally and in Rome (we cannot indicate if he currently resides in Malta or not);

What this Blog can reveal is that the Vatican has already discarded the frontrunner. Those familiar with us know who that person is.

The official announcement can be expected sooner rather than later.

We reiterate, once again, that whoever will be selected as Malta's new Archbishop, he can count on Pro Tridentina (Malta)'s support and assistance to fully implement Summorum Pontificum in this island. Thus, traditional Catholics in Malta will be fully involved in the diocese they love so much.

BREAKING NEWS: Who are the three frontrunners to become Malta's new Archbishop?

Following yesterday's post, we were surprised at the attention given to this modest blog, especially by the local media (more on this in other posts).

Although Fr Fabio Attard has denied the news (and we fully understand his constraints), our sources can be counted upon.

To show this, we are in a position to indicate who the other two frontrunners are:

• a bishop held in high esteem, both locally and in Rome (we cannot indicate if he currently resides in Malta or not);
• a diocesan priest who lectures at the University of Malta.

If the media would like more information, we will be happy to give them more details. But we are sure they have their own tools for this.

Whoever will be selected as Malta's new Archbishop, he can count on Pro Tridentina (Malta)'s support and assistance to fully implement Summorum Pontificum in this island. Thus, traditional Catholics in Malta will be fully involved in the diocese they love so much.

BREAKING NEWS: Malta's NEW Archbishop

Our well informed sources (be it from the Holy See, the Curia or the Nunciature is irrelevant) have confirmed to us that 99.99%, the Holy Father has chosen Fr Fabio Attard, SDB as Malta's new Archbishop. Pro Tridentina (Malta) wishes Fr Attard well and reminds him that one of his responsibilities will be to protect the liturgy under both forms of the Roman Rite.

Brief Biography:

Fr Attard was born on 23 March 1959 in Gozo and was professed as a Salesian on 8 September 1980 in Dublin where he made his novitiate. He received the diaconate on 11 July 1986 and priesthood on 4 July 1987, in Rome. Rector in Sliema, Malta, of  “St Alphonsus” first, and then of “St Patrick”, he received his degree in Moral Theology at the “Alphonsianum” in Rome. He was the Rector of the Institute of Pastoral Formation, which he founded in 2005 in the Archdiocese of Malta; he participated in the 26th General Chapter as delegate of the Salesian Province of Ireland-Malta and was elected Councillor for Youth Ministry. The 27th General Chapter has confirmed Fr Fabio Attard for a second term as Councillor for Youth Ministry of the Salesians.
