Our Latin Mass was discontinued last year. Partly due to covid hassles but also because the very elderly travelling priests who celebrated it couldn’t keep the schedule. The Catholic Church I belong to is that of the 1950s — my birth decade — when the novus liturgy didn’t exist. I recognize nothing invented subsequently.

Wish we had a time machine to go back to our parishes in the fifties. The beautiful Mass, Monday night novena to the Blessed Mother, processions of little boys and girls in their Sunday best for special feastdays, exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, church bazaars, Holy Name Society, Rosary and Altar Society, Lenten retreats for the whole parish with stern priests from the different orders...I could go on and on.

Maybe Heaven will be like that.

SSPX? Where do you live? Aren’t there any new/young priests in your area?

You should be able to find a “first Friday” Mass near.

It sad if you can’t find what your soul is hungry for.
