I am an LCMS pastor. I studied Latin in high school, college, and seminary. I can read and understand the ordo of the Divine Service very well. I like Latin.
At the same time, Latin is never going to replace the vernacular in the Lutheran church. Nor should it. I think the author of this article is not dealing in reality.
