After
years of absence, Latin Mass will be held once again today
at the Upper Basilica at Holy Hill.
Papal
direction and the desire of Roman Catholics to experience
the mystery of the High Mass in Latin - with some readings
and the sermon in English - are among the reasons for its
return and rising popularity in the United States, priests
associated with the Mass said.
The
Rev. Canon Olivier Meney of St. Stanislaus in
Milwaukee
will celebrate the
Mass.
He will be assisted by a deacon and sub-deacon with a
multi-parish choir, many altar boys and two musicians
bringing the traditional Mass to life.
“My
advice is always just come and watch. Let yourself be taken
by the beauty and the magic,” said Meney, who celebrates
the Latin Mass daily at St. Stanislaus on the South Side.
It’s
also a pilgrimage to celebrate a day early Mother Mary’s
Feast Day at the National Shrine of Mary Help of Christians.
