Solemn Mass in the Parish of the Lord of Divine Mercy (REVISED)

The Ecclesia Dei Society of St. Joseph invites you all to a SOLEMN MASS (MISSA SOLEMNIS or "MISA DE TRES") according to the 1962 Missal to be offered tomorrow, 2:00 P.M, in the Parish of the Lord of Divine Mercy. The Mass will be that of the Feast of Christ the King according to the Roman liturgical calendar before the reform of 1969-1970.

This is the fifth time that a Solemn Mass would be offered in the parish since Summorum Pontificum came into effect on September 14, 2007. The previous Solemn Masses had been on June 29, 2008 (see also this article), September 14, 2008 (a Solemn Pontifical Mass from the faldstool offered by Msgr. Camilo Gregorio, Prelate of Batanes; see this and this), October 26, 2008 and November 30, 2008.

Paschal Vigil of 2011 witnessed a "Semi-Solemn Mass" or Solemn Mass without subdeacon as allowed for Holy Week in the Missal of 1962.

Who we are

Societas Ecclesia Dei Sancti Joseph (SEDSI) -- known until early 2012 as Ecclesia Dei Society of St. Joseph or EDSSJ -- was founded (as the Latin Mass Society of the Philippines) on December 18, 1987 to promote and defend access to the older forms of the Roman Rite in the Philippines, but always in alignment with and in obedience to the canonical norms and lawful ecclesiastical authorities of the Roman Catholic Church. In 2010 it became part of Foederatio Internationalis Una Voce.

SEDSI is currently based in Holy Family Parish, Madre Selva St. cor. Lilac St., Roxas District, Quezon City. From late 2006 until January 18, 2012 it had its home in the Parish of the Lord of Divine Mercy. Both are parishes of the Diocese of Cubao (suffragan diocese of the Archdiocese of Manila). In Holy Family Parish, Mass according to the 1962 Missal is said every Sunday and on most weekdays as well.

Members of SEDSI also assist with other TLM's (whether one-off or regularly scheduled Masses) in Metro Manila and rest of the Philippines, either in their official or in their personal capacities.

Members of SEDSI are very active in other religious causes in addition to the promotion of the older forms of the Roman Rite. Some are active in the pro-life movement, others in promoting devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and various saints.
