a little Latin now and then never hurt anyone…

Cardinal Francis Arinze was in St. Louis recently to address the Gateway Liturgical Conference.  One of the things that the told the attendees was that Latin should be used more frequently in the liturgy.  He encourages large parishes to offer Mass in Latin at least once of week and smaller rural parishes at least once a month.

This would be a great way to bring the various Church communities together by giving those who long for the Latin Mass the opportunity to feel “at home” in our new, modern churches while exposing the younger parishioners to the rich traditions of the Tridentine.
