Saint Philomena Chapel
Little Rock, Arkansas
Saint Philomena Chapel is a traditional Roman Catholic church located in Roland, Arkansas, affiliated with the Congregation of Mary Immaculate Queen (CMRI). The chapel has no affiliation with the Diocese of Little Rock and is dedicated to promoting, practicing, defending, and spreading traditional Roman Catholic faith and the Fatima message. The church exclusively celebrates the traditional Latin Mass, which it maintains dates back to Our Lord and His Apostles. According to the chapel, Pope St. Pius V canonized this liturgical form in his 1570 Papal Bull Quo Primum, establishing it as the unchanging form of the Mass. The chapel uses Latin as its liturgical language, which it emphasizes as the official language of the Church. The community holds that Latin, being a dead language, preserves the unchanging meaning of Catholic teachings across time and unites Catholics worldwide in uniform worship regardless of geography.
