I received a query asking a simple question, "Why is the Latin Mass important?" That is the subject for tomes really, but here is a link to a marvelous little piece on the Una Voce website called " Treasures of the Mass ." The introduction to this page reads: The following text is from a booklet published by the Benedictine Nuns of Perpetual Adoration in the United States. It was not copyrighted at the time of publication, and so we making the text available once again here on the Web. It is hoped that you will find this essay on the meaning and beauty of the Traditional Mass as valuable as we do. We've found it to be one of the most suscinct descriptions of the Ancient Roman Rite we've yet seen. It is indeed one of the most succinct descriptions of the TLM you will find .
