At Mater Ecclesiae Church in Berlin Township, the Mass has been said in Latin for several years, unlike at most other Roman Catholic churches.

Music was sung in Latin at the Mass. The pope allowed freer use of the traditional liturgy.

I was there, and it was just an awesome day. And yes, I was one of the dozen or so who indulged in the Chestertonian incense. I actually bought the Inquirer (God forgive me!)today just for this article, as the reporter alerted us it would run on Tuesday.

I am et up with envy. No, I shouldn’t say that: I am full of gratitude and hope, really. These precious few are seeds: and now our wise, kind Benedict has taken the concrete blocks and tarpaper off the ground so these seeds will grow, and seed, and yield 40 or 60 or a hundredfold, and a hundredfold again.

Finally, laus tibi Domine, a new Springtime.

Very striking church.
