With a biretta tip to Rorate o{]:¬) I pass this along. Very interesting!
The German language site Die Kreuz has a story about the rapid increase in Germany, Austria and Switzerland in the celebrations of Mass with the 1962 Missale Romanum follow Summorum Pontificum.
I wonder if stats like this are being kep in other countries.
