[Magdalen] Christ the King Anglican

[Cantor03 at aol.com]

When I've been in Portland, Maine (a very nice spot, incidentally), I've 
attended Mass in Saint Paul's Anglican Church, a cathedral for one of  the
separatist groups.  Of course, I disagree with all their conservative  takes
on the social issues of the day, but I go there because it is a living  
museum
(no surprise) of worship in the old "Biretta Belt" of the Midwest  USA.  
Depending
on the season, there's Missa Marialis, Missa Penitentialis, Missa  
Paschalis, etc.,
and the Anglican Missal on the altar.  Of course they use the 1940  
Episcopal
Hymnal.
 
It's a nostalgia trip, and one meets all sorts and conditions at the  
following
coffee hour.

Liturgy and music.
