Aims of the
Association for Latin Liturgy
The Association was founded in
September 1969. Its aims are:
-
to promote
understanding of the theological, pastoral and spiritual qualities of the
liturgy in Latin;
-
to preserve the
sacredness and dignity of the Roman rite;
-
to secure, for the
present and future generations, the Church's unique inheritance of liturgical
music.
The Association
believes that its objectives are most likely to be achieved by frequent
celebrations of the Mass in Latin in the revised Roman rite, to which the
majority of the laity are accustomed, while many are dissatisfied with the
shortcomings of much current liturgical practice. The Bishops of England
and Wales recognized the Association in 1970 as an approved Catholic
Society, and in 1975 Pope Paul VI conferred on it the Apostolic
Benediction.
