Why the Latin Mass?
We all love the Latin Mass for different reasons.
Some people love the sound of Gregorian chant as they worship. Others love the smell of incense, which instantly puts them in a prayerful mood.
Some people love the fact that the Latin Mass is virtually identical at every parish where it is celebrated. Others appreciate the periods of silence that make meditative prayer possible.
And then there's the opportunity to receive Our Lord kneeling and on the tongue. The camaraderie of big Catholic families who are gratefully accepting children from God. And the chance to pray in the chapel before and after Mass without the distraction of idle conversation.
These are just a few of the reasons why people love the Latin Mass. Now, what about you? Is the Latin Mass the highlight of your week? Tell us your story.
