On Saturday, July 9, His Excellency, the Most Reverend William P. Callahan, Bishop of LaCrosse, Wisconsin, made his first pastoral visit to St. Mary’s Oratory in Wausau and conferred the Sacrament of Confirmation in the Extraordinary Form on sixty-five candidates. Over one third of the candidates are faithful who attend the Institute’s apostolate at Saint Mary’s in Cashton, Wisconsin, which is also located in the Diocese of LaCrosse.

His Excellency was assisted during the Confirmations and the Mass by Canon William Avis, provincial Master of Ceremonies for the Institute’s US province, by Canon Henrique Fragelli, Rector of Saint Mary’s in Wausau, and by Canon Glenn Gardner, Rector of the Institute’s apostolate in Cashton.

Great photos! Oddly enough, I've never seen the interior at St. Mary's in Wausau. Fantastic! Outstanding! Beautiful! Thank you Bishop Callahan for your support!
We're selling our house and looking for a new home right now. This make me want to move to Wausau. Would I move to a new city just for a beautiful church and liturgy? That's affirmative. I know an Australian Catholic who's children can serve the entire Byzantine Rite liturgy. The Latin Rite liturgy was so terrible that the family joined a Byzantine Rite parish. The gentleman laughed as the scoffers who say nobody can learn the Latin since all his children learned Ukrainian to serve at Mass. When you fall in love with the beauty of Catholic liturgy, no substitute will satisfy.
