We will begin to use and pray more parts of this Holy Mass in Latin. Latin is the official language of the Catholic Church. Vatican Council II which allowed Mass to be celebrated in the vernacular language of the people, also encouraged that Latin continue to be used so that people would still pray in the universal language of the Catholic Church.
We here at St John’s do know some of the Greek and Latin prayers and songs of the Mass. Using more Latin at the First Saturday morning Mass will help us to continue to know and use these ancient prayers of the Saints of the ages.
