About half of our group are daily Communicants at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Natchitoches. This tour of the
Painted Churches is, for us, a pilgrimage
– a religious devotion. We want to attend daily Mass while there in
Schulenburg. Here, besides missing his company and insights, is where we will
miss Fr. Louis while we’re there – the original intention had been for him to
say a “private” Mass for us in one of the Painted Churches. Sadly, that isn’t
working out. We will have to find a scheduled Mass … which is proving harder
than expected.
We really are blessed here in
Natchitoches to have two regular Masses each day of the week, Monday through
Friday – 06:30 at the Basilica and 12:05 only a few blocks away at St. Anthony
of Padua Church. There is, furthermore, Mass at 17:30 Tuesday-Thursday (as well
as 08:00 Friday) at Holy Cross, the Campus Ministry Church at my University,
only a few blocks from the Basilica in a different direction. (Natchitoches is
small.)
Confining it to within 20 mi of
Schulenburg, based on the website Masstimes.org
using as my search argument “Schulenburg, Texas,” I found really only one
convenient, at 06:30 Tuesday morning. Fortunately, that’s the time of our
morning Mass at the Basilica, so it won’t be too much of a shock to our systems. Unfortunately, it’s not
repeated on Wednesday morning. Extending the time to the Monday and Tuesday evenings garners a couple of other options as well. I include telephone information for all of these
because using any such Internet index based on reported data that could change
at any time always demands to be
confirmed.

From TX-95, turn west on Bobkat Drive
on the north side of town; go four blocks, and turn right on North Pecan
Street. Parish one and one-half blocks on the left.
My guess? – Even though I personally prefer a morning Mass, the 18:00 at St. Rose of Lima right there in Schulenburg on both Monday and Tuesday evenings could well be the way we go. Or, we may get up and go to
Mass at 06:30 on Tuesday at St. Michael’s in Weimar, then have breakfast before
assembling for the tour at the Visitor’s Center back in Schulenburg … then miss
out on Mass on Wednesday morning.
