    For the Extraordinary Form, the only option is St. Joseph, Toledo: http://www.stjosephstoledo.com/
    They also celebrate the Novus Ordo, and communion is always distributed at the altar rail. The music is simple but reverent.

    Other decent Novus Ordo options would include St. Joseph, Maumee (http://www.stjosephmaumee.org/) and St. Rose, Perrysburg (http://www.saintroseonline.org/), just across the river. At St. Rose, where I am the assistant organist, the organ (shown in my profile picture) is used at all weekend Masses except Sunday 10:30 am and 5:00 pm. The choir is now off for the summer, so the singing is led by cantors.

    Thanks! I may actually have to go somewhere near Adrian, MI. So if there are any good ones there please let me know. OF by the way.

    Yes! In Adrian- Go to St. Joseph. While I have never actually been to a Mass there, I do know that the pastor, Fr. Dave, is a very wonderful priest, and I am sure you will find no liturgical goofiness there. (The Adrian Dominicans, OTOH...)

    (Also, does anyone else hear "Mau-mee, how I love you, how I love you, my dear old Maumee!" whenever they hear that name?)

    Ah, I will have to give it a try next time. The mass times did not line up well with my schedule. It seems as if every town in NW Ohio and southern Michigan has a St. Joseph!!!
