TRADITIONAL MONASTERY REOPENS NEAR MOTHER ANGELICA

MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT

Una Voce Georgia is pleased to announce that the traditional Abbey of Christ the King in Cullman Alabama is going to be staffed by a new group in union with Rome as of this weekend. This will make this the ONLY traditional monastery in the south and is only 25 minutes from the Shrine of Mother Angelica in Hanceville Alabama. This will be an excellenct destination for traditional Catholics to make a piligrimage to. The group " Contemplatives of the Pierced Hearts" will take up residence in the Abbey this week. They will have their own priest. This Abbey was not in Union with Rome and only recently reconciled with the Church resulting in all but one of the monks leaving. With only one monk in residence,the Abbey's future was uncertain ,but now it will come back to life as a functioning traditional monastery. The new monks were novus ordo but have switched over to tradition and only the 1962 mass and breviary will be used.. See the below post for news on the high mass this Sunday
