St. Mark Catholic Church in Huntersville, N.C., offered its final Traditional Latin Mass last Friday, March 31, 2023, at 12:30 p.m. The announcement in the March 26 bulletin of the parish read as follows: “In light of the recent responsum from the Dicastery of Divine Worship in Rome, the Traditional Latin Mass will no longer be offered at St. Mark.”
Ten years ago, Chris Lauer was instrumental in working to bring a regular Traditional Latin Sunday Mass to the area at the original Latin Mass parish, St. Ann’s.
“At first, attendance was around 150 people, but in the decade since, attendance has more than doubled, and at times, has swelled to above 500,” Lauer said. “The 12:30 p.m. Latin Mass is now the highest attended Mass at St. Ann’s.”
Lauer explained that the parish has also had weekday Latin Masses on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays as well as holy days of obligation and feast days throughout the year. “We have also had the Easter Triduum and Sacraments using the traditional Rituale Romanum for baptisms, Confirmations, Nuptials and Requiems,” he said.
