QUAERITUR: Wouldn’t audible prayers in the Extraordinary Form be better?
From a reader:
I was born during Vatican II and until recently, had no exposure whatsoever to Mass in the Extraordinary Form. At the invitation of a friend, I have been visiting a local parish that offers the EF and I am baffled … Continue reading
QUAERITUR: Vernacular only readings in traditional Low Mass?
From a reader:
We have a priest that insists on reading the epistle & gospel in the vernacular for each Low Mass only. No one cares for it and it doesn’t even sound right. It impacts the integrity and fluidity … Continue reading
Want a TLM in your parish? Here is how it was done in one place!
I have written a few times (since the election of Francis – for example HERE) that it is time to push forward in the implementation of Summorum Pontificum. People who have been wringing their hands or resting on the … Continue reading

Of Star Wars and Immanentism and Birdcages and Elite Snobbery. Wherein Fr. Z rants.
In my talks I sometimes address the steady slide of many Catholics into Immanentism Lite. They don’t exactly deny that God is transcendent, it’s just that they never give transcendence the slightest thought. They have never had too, have they? … Continue reading
Wherein I write of Requiem Masses, of death and prudence and perennial wisdom
I had a useful and edifying experience today. In a way what happened today dovetails with what I experienced a week or so ago when I carried the Blessed Sacrament for Corpus Christi in the streets of Manhattan. But … Continue reading
CRI DE COEUR: “If there were no more priests hardly anyone would be crying about it.”
At Rorate I saw something (translated there from Italian) from the blog Radicati nella fede, for the Catholic community of Domodossola and Vocogno in the Diocese of Novara.
This is a cri de coeur, if there ever was one.
My emphases … Continue reading

1st Friday: Feast of the Sacred Heart – Note for NYC! Great spiritual opportunity!
Tomorrow, a First Friday, is the Feast of the Sacred Heart. That doesn’t happen all that often!
The Feast of the Sacred Heart is, I believe, the only Feast that Our Lord Himself requested!
I hope your parish will have special Masses.
Those … Continue reading

BRICK BY BRICK: New TLM in a small town
Pope Benedict gave us a great gift in the provisions of Summorum Pontificum.
Get out there and USE THEM!
Now is not the time to fall back or hesitate or wring hands.
Organize! Stop whining! Make it happen!

Archbishop on the TLM: “you must try to get as many people as possible to walk down this path of yours”
Here is some great news.
