St. Phillip Neri, Confessor

Born in Florence in 1515, St. Phillip Neri lived all his life in Rome and was one of the most influential persons of his time. He was a man of original character and happy disposition, but his soul was burning with an ardent and unbounded love for God and for people of all conditions, with whom he made contact and with whom he led to God, directing and advising them with exceptional sureness of touch. After living as a pilgrim or hemit for 15 years in the streets of Rome, he was ordained a priest at 36 years of age and gathered around himself a group of twenty priests who formed a congregation of secular priests of the Oratory. But St. Phillip’s life remained what it always had been, original in character and a very great influence for holiness, which seemed to radiate from him. He died in 1595.

Mater Dei Personal Parish is served by the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter (FSSP) with the approval and blessing of the Most Reverend Edward J. Burns, Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Dallas. The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter (FSSP) serves in apostolates across the world, with the faithful celebration of the traditional Mass and Sacraments (Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite) at the center of their charism.

You are not alone! All over the globe people are discovering the treasure that has been at the heart of the Catholic Liturgy since the first century. Do not feel out of place if you are not familiar with Latin (you will see most people reading a translation) or if the actions on the altar look different – this same Mass was known by Roman Catholics around the world for centuries!
