The following not about the Extraordinary Faith video comes from a May 18 email sent by a California Catholic reader.
Episode 1: Mission San Juan Capistrano
We visit one of California’s oldest Catholic Missions, located one hour south of Los Angeles. Mission San Juan Capistrano is home to one of the first Extraordinary Form Mass sites established in North America after Vatican II. Pastor Msgr. Art Holquin explains the Mission’s history and current membership. We chat with George Sarah, a Hollywood composer and organizer of Latin Masses in Los Angeles, and with Joy Lanfranchi, organizer of the annual Lenten Pilgrimage in Orange County. This episode is co-hosted by Extraordinary Faith co-founder Mary O’Regan.

Wonderful to watch this program here. It will do much to make the Extraordinary Mass more visible. It was interesting to learn that the first place where it was reinstated after Saint John Paul lifted the prohibition by Pope Paul VI was right here in Southern California, in the San Juan Capistrano Mission Serra Chapel.
A minor point is that your entry should read “the following note” instead of “not”.
Gratias
The Norbertines at St. Michael’s Abbey are mentioned in the context of the Lenten Pilgrimage walk, but nowhere else. They deserve the credit for supplying the priests to offer these Tridentine Masses. In fact, that is how I learned of St. Michael’s Abbey.
It was a beautiful program, looking forward to more in the series. Try to watch!
