WDTPRS: Comments

It is clear that for most things dealing with the TLM, the blog by Father John Zuhlsdorf, "What Does the Prayer Really Say?", is one of the benchmarks for much of the information, updates and commentary on the Traditional Mass. In fact, the name given to this blog, Traditional Latin Mass in Maryland, evolved from a poll on Fr. John's blog asking what the most normative name might be for the "Extraordinary Form," "Tridentine Mass," "Usus Antiquior", and so on. The designation TLM--short for Traditional Latin Mass--won by a landslide. And so, I used this name when this blog was launched in December.

It is clear that it is very wise to check Fr. Z's blog first each day for info worldwide since he is in Rome, is a priest and has connections within the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei. Also, a great many priests and seminarians check his blog daily. As such, I initially placed a link to his blog on my Blogroll and Favorite websites. In addition, as of yesterday, I have now mounted his "Feedburner Content Scroll" just below my profile in the right margin. Clicking on any story will take you directly to his blogsite.

There are many great blogs reporting on the TLM. I will be checking a great many of them often and will bring new information here for your perusal. In addition, I will comment on stories by Fr. John as they apply to Maryland. However, it seems to make little sense to simply recapitulate what Fr. Z. is reporting each day unless he reports a story you should see immediately if you have not done so.
