While in Houston, Texas, this week on Monastery business, our Prior Christian Leisy and Father Simeon Cook had the opportunity to attend Sunday Mass on February 28th at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Walsingham, which belongs to the Catholic Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter.
Recently appointed by the Vatican, Bishop Steven J. Lopes heads the Ordinariate. The welcoming and very liturgically-oriented Catholic parish has strong ties with its roots in the monastic-cathedrals of Great Britain and has built a beautiful complex in Houston.
