The St. Gregory Foundation for Latin Liturgy, established in September 1989,
seeks to promote within the Church in the United States the use of the Latin
language in the Mass of Pope Paul VI, according to the teachings of the
Second Vatican Council, in order to encourage the faithful to appreciate the
unique theological, pastoral and spiritual qualities of the Latin Mass.

Toward this end, the Foundation is devoted to the use of the great patrimony of
sacred music as envisioned by Sacrosanctum Concilium and to the
preservation of the liturgical tradition of the Latin Rite as codified in the Missale
Romanum of 1970.
