Cardinal Newman Wrote: "We have good hope that a system will be rising up, superior to the age, yet harmonizing with, and carrying out its higher points, which will attract to itself those who are willing to make a venture and to face difficulties, for the sake of something higher in prospect. On this, as on other subjects, the proverb will apply, 'Fortes fortuna adjuvat.'" [Apologia pro Vita Sua] |

| Anyone who watches or participates in a papal liturgy is struck with the seeming effortlessness with which it is conducted, resulting in a celebration that is prayerful, dignified and uplifting. The person responsible for orchestrating this is the priest designated the "Master of Pontifical Ceremonies." Reverend Monsignor Guido Marini has performed this role for some time now, and his new book, translated by Fr. Nicholas Gregoris, explains how his liturgical judgments reflect sound theology as well as Pope Benedict XVI's goals for the liturgical life of the entire church! 111 pages $10.00 |
| This book was sent to every Bishop in the United States and Canada. It is a must-read on the Source and Summit of our faith: The Holy Eucharist. |
Bringing Back Latin by Mark Clark PhD (From Homiletic and Pastoral Review)
During the debates of the Second Vatican Council one prelate after another addressed the Fathers of the
Council in fluent Latin. That they did so is hardly surprising, for Latin remained the living language of the Roman
Catholic Church. What may be surprising, however, is their collective level of fluency. The European prelates in
particular displayed in their speeches and lively discussions a near-native mastery of Latin that would have been
the envy of Renaissance humanists living five hundred years previously. Among the issues the Council Fathers
debated in Latin was the introduction of vernacular languages into the Mass. When they ultimately decided to
endorse the use of the vernacular in the Mass it doubtless never occurred to them that the facility in Latin that
they took for granted—Latin, after all, was an integral part of their own intellectual patrimony and would remain
the official language of the Church—would largely disappear within half a century.)
