Title
Protestant-sponsored 'demonstration Catholic Mass.'
Description
Text transcribed from caption: PC-30996 PROTESTANT-SPONSORED ‘DEMONSTRATION CATHOLIC MASS’ CHICAGO -- An ecumenical first in the U.S. -- a Demonstration (Roman Catholic) English Mass -- will be held May 25 at the Rockefeller Memorial Chapel at the University of Chicago. Twenty Protestant groups -- five seminaries and 14 churches -- are co-sponsors of the program along with the Catholic Adult Education Center of Chicago and local Catholic parishes. Denominations to be represented include Baptist, Unitarian, United Church of Christ, Disciples of Christ, Presbyterian, Methodist, Luther and Protestant Episcopal groups. The experimental mass in English to be demonstrated is the work of a young Chicago composer, Dennis Fitzpatrick, shown below. According to the Catholic Adult Education Center, “because his work incorporates actual and contemplate changes by Vatican Council II, it will afford a new experience for Roman Catholic and Protestant alike.” Dr. Howard C. Schomer, president of Chicago Theological Seminary (United Church of Christ), said “many traditional Protestant misunderstandings of the intent of Roman Catholic worship may be dissolved in surprise and joy at this ecumenical event at Rockefeller Chapel.” Mr. Roger Nachtwey, a singer, will portray the role of the “priest” in the demonstration mass.
