What is the Traditional Latin Mass

The Traditional Latin Mass refers to the way in which the Roman Catholic Mass was celebrated across the world until 1970. For centuries the Traditional Latin Mass inspired saints, nourished the souls of sinners, and converted nations to Jesus Christ.

Every minute detail of the Traditional Latin Mass is replete with symbolism and accompanied by prayer. It is this experience of worship which generations of saints have found as a most suitable way to follow the injunction of our Savior: “Do this in memory of me” (Luke 22:19).
