Christmas Week Bus Tour of Historic Churches in Chicago
For the second year in a row, there will be a bus tour of historic Catholic churches in Chicago during the week between Christmas and New Year’s. The tour will span two days, Thursday-Friday, December 27-28, with Tridentine Masses offered each day.
Churches to be visited this year include Chicago’s three basilicas: Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica [where the famous black-and-white Tridentine Mass video narrated by Archbishop Fulton Sheen was filmed; photo below © 2009, Jeremy Atherton], Queen of All Saints Basilica (second photo below), and St. Hyacinth Basilica, plus St. John Cantius Church, Holy Trinity Church, St. Hedwig Church, and the Marytown National Shrine.
By popular demand, the first Tridentine Mass, on December 27 at 1:00 PM, will be held once again at St. Mary of the Angels (photo below © 2009, Jeremy Atherton), perhaps the most stunningly clean and ornate church this writer has ever seen.
Overnight accommodations will be provided at Mundelein Seminary, where Vespers will be offered on Thursday evening. On Friday morning, the main chapel at Mundelein will be the site of the second Tridentine Holy Mass. Mundelein is one of North America’s growing number of seminaries where the Extraordinary Form is regularly offered.
To purchase tickets or for further information, please contact Mike Semaan at (248) 250-6005.
