From time to time, I receive a comment asking, " why the Latin Mass? " or words to that effect. I have also been approached by those who simply ask, "What's it like?" How does one answer that? The blog, " Mulier Fortis ", has done all of us a favor by producing a helpful "pocket guide" that indicates/reveals the rather overt differences between the Ordinary and Extraordinary Forms. She called her post, " The Laywoman's Guide To The Usus Antiquior . " It should not be construed as applying only to women! I must say, it is remarkably helpful. I'd bookmark this one especially for those near a college campus who have been asked the questions I mentioned above. One might respond, "read Mac's post!"

I get many searches that show evidence of a misunderstanding between "Opus Dei," "F.S.S.P." and "Latin Mass." So, searches for "Opus Dei Latin Mass" are not uncommon. Here is the link to Opus Dei in the U.S. with all the information you could wish. It is a "personal Prelature" and has nothing to do with the Latin or Traditional Mass. Its founder is a canonized saint, Saint Josemaria Escriva . Is it possible that an Opus Dei priest could say the TLM? Yes! See below! The F.S.S.P. is actually shorthand for the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter or, in Latin, Fraternitas Sacerdotalis Sancti Petri (thus the contraction, FSSP !). This Fraternity says Mass according to the Missal of 1962 (the Traditional Mass, Extraordinary Form or Usus Antiquior to use several acronyms). This group DOES celebrate the "Latin Mass." It is only one of several groups that use this Missal including the Institute of Christ the King Sov
