I agree with Ultima Ratio. My situation in the Archdiocese of Baltimore is deplorable (to put it mildly). I sure don't want my 6 week old to be growing up in this environment. That's why we're moving to NJ to be in the TLM parish of Mater Ecclesiae.

The Archdiocese of Baltimore can be summed up as follows:

One stagnant TLM available. Low Mass mentality reigns supreme. Go to Fr. Jim Tucker's blog for a complete explanation of the Low Mass mentality and how it is not traditional.

One Novus Ordo in Latin. Pastor is a social justice nut, so the homily usually destroys any meaning derived from the Mass itself. Also, this is not a well attended Mass either.

Maybe a few more conservative inner city parishes.

A huge, wide swath of liberal, in every sense of the word, suburban parishes.
