Are there any convents of Passionist nuns where the EF of the Mass is celebrated daily?
If there were, I’m sure that Saint Gemma would be very happy!Are there any convents of Passionist nuns where the EF of the Mass is celebrated daily?
I am sorry to say they do not.I do believe that the Passionist Nuns in St. Louis still have the TLM. Here’s the story of what has gone on there:

I don’t know any information other than this so calling them would probably be your best bet at finding out. Good luck and God Bless!
Why did the Canons leave and where did they go?I am sorry to say they do not.
The Canons Regular of the New Jerusalem DID offer Holy Mass there on Sundays, not daily. Due to some unforseen circumstances, the Canons are no longer in the Diocese of St. Louis, so there is no longer a TLM at the Passionist Convent. However the English Benedictines at St. Louis Abbey, took over the West County Latin Mass community that the Canons once served and now have daily Mass there.

There was a misunderstanding about the property they lived on and they had to move on. There is conflicting stories about what all transpired, so I’ll leave it at that.Why did the Canons leave and where did they go?
I can’t believe I have never heard this before. I thought that the CRNJ were doing just fine. I guess that’s not the case. Pretty sad. Their website doesn’t even mention anything about this. I hope they come back soon, and eventually spread out to other Diocese. I know they’re needed in my Diocese.There was a misunderstanding about the property they lived on and they had to move on.

Father Oppenheimer has moved to California and is with…I THINK…a Norbertine Order. The young men studying to be priests were sent by Archbishop Burke to the Angelicum in Rome for their seminary studies and formation. It is said they will come back in 4 years.
I am going to get a list to update everyone here on all the Tridentine Masses that are popping up in the St. Louis Diocese. There are many priests learning it right now, so in a a year it should be available in most deaneries and areas. No more long distance pilgrimages on Sunday mornings, just short ones!!!
Fwiw, I know two priests who are planning on offering the Tridentine Mass asap. Problem is the parishoners are NOT with the priests. One priest wants to offer it now, but doesn’t have enough parishoners requesting it (I want to say they need 20 people to make the request). Sad.
Thanks so much and I for one would be grateful for updates. Let us increase our prayers and sacrifices for the priests, that they return to the traditional rites.I am going to get a list to update everyone here on all the Tridentine Masses that are popping up in the St. Louis Diocese.
