A link to the ages
With Pope Benedict's encouragement, more churches return to ancient rite
This was the front of today's Enquirer.
From the article:
But in the handful of area churches that offer a traditional Latin Mass, the congregations tend to have a younger mix.
Many people in their 20s and 30s fill the pews at these Masses.
"In a world with so much busyness, this particular Mass is popular," DeVous said. "Some feel maybe too much was stripped away too quickly.
"It communicates to me with the music of traditional chants and polyphony. I remember it communicated an immediate sense of the sacred. It communicated the grand nature of God."
What a cool way to start the week. I hope more locals come. It is truly a gift for the entire diocese.
