Some months ago, the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest started saying a Latin Mass on Sundays and Wednesdays at the church of St Mary in Wigan. This was with the approval of Rt Rev Malcolm McMahon, the Archbishop of Liverpool, although he did ask that the Masses should not be publicly advertised.
Despite the lack of publicity, these Masses were very well attended, with a congregation of 90 on Sundays and 40 on Wednesdays.
It has now been announced that the archbishop has instructed that these Masses be discontinued. There is a very short notice about this development on the church's website, but it does not give any explanation.
