YOU ARE AT SAINT MARGARET MARY HUB OF THE LATIN MASS LITURGY IN OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA

The Traditional Latin Mass (now called by the Holy Father: Mass in the Extraordinary Form) is brought to you through the ministry of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest. WHAT IS THE INSTITUTE OF CHRIST THE KING SOVEREIGN PRIEST? The Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest is a Society of Apostolic Life of Pontifical Right whose goal is the honor of God and the sanctification of priests in the ser- vice of the Church and souls. Its specific aim is missionary: to spread the reign of our Lord Jesus Christ in all spheres of human life. Our work is carried out under the patronage of the Immaculate Conception, to Whom the Institute is consecrated.

Recognizing the importance of a deep harmony between faith, liturgy, life, and the power of beauty in attracting the human senses to the things above, an integral part of the Institute’s charism is the use of the traditional Latin Liturgy of 1962 for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and the other sacraments. Great care for a solemn liturgy, complete fidelity to the doctrine of the Church and the Holy Father, and awareness of the central role of Grace, especially Charity – these are essential elements of the Institute’s spirituality, which is drawn from its three co-patrons, St. Benedict, St. Thomas Aquinas, and St. Francis de Sales. Our motto is “Live the truth in charity." The Institute operates in more than fifty places in twelve countries, where our priests focus on the care of souls in many different ways. To assist our priests in their apostolic work, the Institute also has clerical oblates. In 2004, a community of religious sisters was canonically established to aid the priests in their mis- sion through prayer and apostolic work. The Institute was founded in 1990 by Monsignor Gilles Wach. Today, the motherhouse and international seminary of the Institute is located in Gricigliano, in the Archdiocese of Florence, Italy. The Institute serves the faithful of the Bay since 2005 at St. Margaret Mary in Oakland and at Five Wounds in San Jose (Mass at 12:30 pm on Sunday, 12:15 pm on Weekdays but Sat. at 7:30 am)

DIOCESAN APPROVED TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS APOSTOLATE FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE , IN THE DIOCESE OF OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA

Continuation of extracts from Father Knox explanation of the rites of the Mass. These sermons were preached in 1948 to the convent school of the Assumption Sisters, which was evacuated during the late war from Kensington to Aldenham Park in Shropshire.

Offertory III

“Yes, let us get excited about the unconsecrated bread and wine, because of what they are going to be; but let us not lose sight of the fact that what they are going to be depends entirely on what God is going to do with them; WE could wave them about in the air and repeat Latin sentences over them from morning to night, and they would be just ordinary bread and wine still; it’s only because God is going to take a hand that they are going to become something quite different. I always like to think of the Offertory as a repetition of what happened when our Lord fed the five thousand people in the wilderness, just with five loaves and a couple of fishes. That's why I took those words as my text, " Whence shall we? " Here are five thousand people all hungry and shouting for food, whence shall we, with only a few coppers in the common purse, buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, in a trackless desert where there are no bakers' shops anyhow? And then the shamefaced after•thought; " As a matter of fact there is an urchin here ''-yes, an urchin; the word is only twice used in the New Testament, in Matthew XI where it means a guttersnipe, and here in John VI where it means an urchin-" an urchin who has five loaves and two small fishes; but that isn't going to go far among five thousand". All the same, the urchin is produced, and stands there on one leg with his thumb in the corner of his mouth looking up at our Lord and grinning: '' You can have them if you want.,, That is the server at Mass; the boy in cassock who provides the priest with the material for the miracle that is just going to be performed in his hands. A pathetically small ration, but it's something; our Lord only wants us to give him something. Everything we do for him, every aspiration of our hearts towards him, is so ridiculously inadequate, considered in itself; it is his grace, really., that has got to do the miracle, to make something out of our efforts. Everything you and I do is just water for him to turn into wine, five rolls for him to feed a mass meeting with.

You see, then, something of what the Offertory is: Suscipe, sancte Pater, the priest says; ' Holy Father, almighty, eternal God, receive this unspotted Victim " -he calls it that already! It is only a plain piece of bread, but because of what it is going to become, later on, he already calls it" the unspotted Victim "; the action of the Mass is all continuous, you see, and the action of the Mass has begun. On to that victim he piles all his innumerable sins, faults, and pieces of negligence; you wouldn't believe how many of them a priest has.

Onto that victim, he piles the needs of all the congregation present, nay, of all faithful Christians, living and dead; this piece of bread, which might equally well have been made into a sandwich and eaten in a railway train, is going to be the Victim that will bring us all to everlasting life. And then the chalice; the wine first, and then the tiny spot of water. If the priest, by mistake, puts into the chalice one eighth as much water as he has put wine, he must start all over again; the water has got to be a tiny spot. And the words the priest says as he does it give the explanation of that: " 0 God, by whom the worth of our human nature was wondrously fashioned, and re•fashioned more wondrously still, grant us, through the power of this water-mingled-with-wine, in imitation of this water-mingled-with-wine, to be partakers of his Godhead who was courteous enough to share our Manhood." Make us one and the same thing with Jesus Christ, our identity merged and lost in his, just as the identity of that spot of water is merged and lost in the wine that covers the bottom of the chalice. That is the whole point of the Offertory; to remind us how little it is we offer, so that when we get to the Consecration we may be bowled over, more than ever, by the thought of what he makes of it.”

Father R. Knox
