ST. JOSEPH
March 19
“He is the patron of all and every class, not only generally, but for
special reasons in each case. He is the patron of families, since he
was the head of the Holy Family. He is the patron of the poor, since
he voluntarily embraced and followed for all his days a life of poverty. He is the patron of the artisan, as the workshop of Nazareth
testified for so many years. He is the patron of the rich who seek a
better inheritance, since he held in his possession for nigh upon thirty years the true riches. He is the patron of the suffering, of travellers, of exiles, of the afflicted; he is the patron of the married, and
he is the patron of virgins; he is the patron of the dying, but, above
all, we might say he is the patron of priests.
The priest is another Joseph. His whole office repeats and reflects
him ....since it is given to the priest to be obeyed by Our Lord as
Joseph was. He comes at his calling and remains in his custody to
be carried where he wills and to whom he wills.”
Good St. Joseph, ora pro nobis.

To the members of Una Voce and friends:
It’s time for our first newsletter of 2015 and I am excited to share with you news of what Una Voce has
been doing since our last update in November.
First of all, I am happy to report that we raised almost $700 as part of a Christmas collection for the Latin
Mass Priests in Cincinnati and Covington. The priests were all very appreciative and I want to personally
thank everyone that contributed to the collection.
Next, there are some infrastructure improvements that will leverage technology and help Una Voce better
communicate with the Latin Mass Community. Recently, we re-designed our website
www.unavocecincinnati.org and I encourage everyone to take a few minutes to visit the site. I think you
will like the new design and will be able to see local Mass times, read Una Voce newsletters, see our calendar, join Una Voce, subscribe to the email list, etc.
Also, we are now using a more professional email notification system which will give our communications a more polished presentation and automatically publish news events on our Facebook page. So
please take a moment to friend us on Facebook or like us, and try to let other people know about Una
Voce on social media. Hopefully these improvements will help you keep tabs on what Una Voce is doing
and afford you plenty of advance notice for upcoming Masses and special events.
There are a few items of note in terms of upcoming opportunities to assist at TLM’s in the coming weeks.
As many of you know, on most Saturdays the Helper's of God's Precious Infants group organizes
a Mass, benediction, and a rosary procession from Holy Name Church in Cincinnati to the Planned
Parenthood facility down the road.
On Saturday March 7th at 8:00am, Fr. Kyle Schnippel will be offering a Traditional Latin Mass at this
event. The Mass will be hosted at: Holy Name Catholic Church 2448 Auburn Avenue, Cincinnati, OH.
Una Voce is sponsoring this event and we’d love to see support at this special Mass.
Finally, Holy Week Masses and events will be held in Northern Kentucky this year: Holy Thursday
through Good Friday will be held at St. Bernard’s in Dayton, KY; Easter Vigil Mass will be offered at Divine Mercy in Bellevue, KY. Please see the back page for times of these and other upcoming events.
To conclude, I would ask everyone to consider renewing your annual Una Voce membership or signing
up for a new first-time membership. The cost is $20 per household. As Una Voce makes a fresh start at
serving the Latin Mass community, we’ll need active members and funds to prepare printed materials for
local Latin Masses (choir booklets, pamphlets, etc.), train local clergy in how to offer the Holy Sacrifice
of the Mass according to the 1962 liturgical books, and sponsor retreats and conferences.
Please remember to pray for Una Voce, our mission, and for our priests and bishops.
Wishing you a fruitful Lenten season,
Ken Zalewski
President, Una Voce of Greater Cincinnati

Musical Notes
A Year of Many “Firsts” at Sacred Heart Church
Last year was the 25th anniversary of the re-establishment of the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) to the
Cincinnati area. It was also the 20th anniversary of when the Mass was moved from St. Monica's to
Sacred Heart in Camp Washington. Looking back at 2014, we had four major first events:
Fr. Fernandes, Dean of the local seminary and son of the parish, became the
administrator of Sacred Heart, while maintaining his previous position at the
seminary. This transition to an Archdiocesan administrator ends over 100 years of the
Scalabrinis ministering to the people of the Archdiocese.
Fr. Joseph Heffernan, FSSP, offered Solemn High Mass on
Pentecost Sunday. Along with the parishioners, over
forty relatives of his that live in the area were in attendance.
Born and raised in the Philadelphia area, he is currently stationed in Seattle,
Washington with Fr. Saguto, who, in the past, celebrated Mass at Sacred Heart
once a month for us for over a year, .

Fr. Michael Flick, FSSP, a Cincinnati native who attended Our Lady of
Visitation grade school and Elder High School, offered Solemn Mass the
Sunday after Pentecost. He was attended to by the Knights of Columbus in full
regalia, followed by a lunch in the Auditorium. Fr. Flick was ordained with Fr.
Heffernen on May 31, 2014, after having served for 7 years in the Air Force. He
is currently stationed in Harrisburg, PA at St. Lawrence Chapel.


Bishop Andrew Cozzens, Auxilary Bishop of St. Paul and Minneapolis
Minnesota and friend of Fr. Fernandes, offered a Pontifical Low Mass in
the Extraordinary Form on November 23 and was assisted by Fr.
Fernandes and Msgr. Frank Lane. The most notable difference at a
Pontifical Mass is that the preparatory prayers and vesting before Mass,
and thanksgiving prayers and un-vesting after Mass, takes place
publically in the church. The prayers are quite long, which creates quite a
challenge for the choir to fill that time with sacred music! Pictures of the
Mass can been seen on Sacred Heart’s web site.
We wish Fr. Fernades God's Blessings on his new assignment, and hope for Bishop Cozzens, Fr. Flick,
and Fr. Heffernan, to grace us with their presence again soon!

We have gained momentum in the holy season of Lent,
now. The music to complement the more somber tones
of the liturgy reminds us, not only of Our Lord’s
passion and death, but of our
own part in His suffering by our sinfulness. There are
no “Alleluias” in either the Propers or the hymns we
sing. Instead of a Gradual and an Alleluia verse, we
have a Gradual and a Tract.
by Michael Lohman

WINTER NEWSLETTER
At the beginning of Lent, the Propers of the Mass focus
on psalm verses which reminds us that the Lord has
sent His angels for our protection and sustenance. Proceeding to the second Sunday, we have psalms that
put us in the position of reminding God of His promises to us for protection and help. By
the third Sunday we are begging God for His help and His strength.
Suddenly, on the fourth Sunday we have a change in mood. We are rejoicing because when we put our
trust in the Lord we are rewarded. We feel the imminence of our salvation through the redemptive acts of
the Savior. We join with the tribes of Israel and sing about being safe in the Holy City of Jerusalem.
The next week is Passion Sunday. We are again begging the Lord for help. This time we speak of the
enemies who surround us and beg for deliverance from their hands. Still, we praise the Lord in the
Offertory verse, and beg Him to remember His word. Hope springs forward in the Communion Antiphon,
when reference is made to the Eucharist.
Holy Week begins with Palm Sunday filled with Hosannas and glorification before Mass, which gives us a
taste of the sublime salvation in store for us. Within the Mass, however, the emphasis is on the suffering
and the feeling of abandonment that Christ felt on the Cross. We plead once more for mercy and
deliverance. We ask that the cup pass, but only if it be God’s will.
Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday are filled with joy. The Paschal Candle, and the Holy Water are blessed
with great ceremony. Then we renew our Baptismal Vows. We once again are singing beautiful Alleluias
because the Lord is risen! He is risen indeed!
