Visitors

Welcome to historic St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church!

Built over a century ago, we all owe a debt of gratitude

to the Irish faithful who were the first to call this church

their parish. For apart from the countless sacrifices

made by that first generation of faithful to build a

suitable house of prayer and divine worship for the

greater glory of God, this beautiful church would not

exist.

Many of the beautiful stained glass windows, perhaps

the most stunning feature of the church, have been

newly restored. Rendered in the Munich Pictorial style,

they depict scenes from the life of Christ as well as

images of various angels and saints. By the end of this

year, we hope to complete this restoration project.

The careful observer will discern elements from the

Gothic, Romanesque, and Byzantine styles which

together make up the style known as Venetian Gothic.

When the church was entrusted to the care of the priests

of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter in 2008, the

sanctuary was renovated and restored for the celebration

of the usus antiquior (more ancient usage) of the Roman

rite. Bishop Paprocki consecrated the new main and

side altars in 2012 and established the church as a

personal parish on New Years Day, 2014.

After both Sunday Masses, visitors are invited to meet

and greet some of our parishioners in the parish hall and

socialize over coffee and donuts. If interested in joining

the parish, simply call the office.

ST. ROSE OF LIMA PARISH

Quincy, Illinois

A Personal Parish for the Extraordinary Form

of the Roman Rite or

Traditional Latin Mass

Staffed by the Priests of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter

Fr. Arnaud Devillers, FSSP Pastor

Fr. Robert Fromageot, FSSP Assistant Pastor

From the Desk of the Pastor Second Sunday of Lent The Transfiguration

«At that time Jesus took Peter and James, and John

his brother, and bringeth them up into a high Mountain

apart: and he was transfigured before them.» Mt 17, 1-2

Why does the evangelist specify the names of the three

apostles who were the witnesses of the Transfiguration of

Jesus? In the gospels, details of this kind are sometimes of

the utmost consequence.

We find the same three, Peter, James, and John at

another important moment of the life of Christ. It is no

longer a time of glory but a time of crisis: during the agony

of Jesus in the Garden of the Olives before he is arrested.

At the agony, the glory which comes from his divinity

is no longer visible. What is visible is an overwhelming

anxiety. Knowing what he will have to endure for our

redemption, he is already in a state of such intense

suffering that he transpires blood.

The same three men who saw him in all his glory,

bright like the sun, the day of the Transfiguration, see him

now in a state of dejection and despondency, covered with

blood sweat. What a contrast between the two scenes!

For us, it is a striking illustration of the mystery of

Jesus-Christ, God-made-man. Jesus is divine and human;

he is true God and true man. In order to save us, God

became man. This process of divine ‘humanization’ did not

end with the earthly life of Christ; it has become the way

by which God manifests himself to us, through which he

speaks and acts today. The Catholic Church was instituted

by Christ to continue his mission after his return to his

heavenly Father. St. Joan of Arc replied to her judges who

were trying to fault her belief: “It seems to me that Christ

and Church are one and the same thing”. She was not a

scholar and had not studied theology but she had perfectly

grasped the mystery of the action of God into the world.

God has decreed that every grace must be given

through Jesus-Christ who is the only mediator between

God and man. He is mediator in virtue of his human

nature for as God, he is one with the Father and the Holy

Ghost.

Every grace that we receive comes to us through

Christ as the head commands the members. Since the

church continues the mission of Jesus, one may also say

that every grace flows to us from God through the church.

Even though one may not belong to the church in a visible

manner, one is saved through the Catholic Church.

The main means through which God bestows his grace

to us are the seven sacraments. What are the sacraments?

Some rites, gestures, ceremonies? Yes, but more than that.

When we receive a sacrament we are actually in

communication with Jesus. A sacrament is truly an action

of Jesus himself. The minister acts only in persona Christi.

Indeed, it is Christ Himself who is acting through the

priest and the sacrament.

questionnaire is on the diocesan website at www.dio.org.
