He explains:
- The “sacred silence” and contemplation of the ancient rite makes present the Lord Jesus in an expression of rich liturgical beauty, as the conqueror of death and sin… this rite brought unity to the faith and became the single expression through which the Church adores God.
- That parishes and priests should make available the Extraordinary Form even if it is not specifically asked for, or requested, it should be provided so that “everyone may have access to this treasure of the ancient liturgy of the Church."
- And emphasised that this Mass was a universal gift - a gift for all, it is not a gift merely for the so-called "traditionalists" but a gift for the entire Catholic Church
- Pope Benedict XVI hoped to foster a “spiritual and theological richness” by promoting wider use of the Mass of St. Pius V through the Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum.
- That the Pope wants this Mass to become normal in parishes, so that “young communities can also become familiar with this rite.”
This DVD makes a terrific Christmas gift for priests and seminarians. Orders can be placed here.
