As a grand finale to the symposium on the Motu Proprio a Traditional Mass was celebrated last Sunday by Archbishop Raymond Burke at St. Peter’s Basilica, Vatican City in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel. The Mass was the first celebrated at St. Peters according to the pre-Vatican II rubrics in over forty years and had an overflow crowd for the congregation. The three day symposium was held October 16-18 entitled The Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum by Benedict XVI: A Great Gift for the Whole Church, organized by Fr. Vincenzo Nuara, O.P. founder of Giovani e Tradizione (Youth and Tradition) hundreds of clergy and religious attended and the speakers were leaders in the various groups associated with Traditional Mass, including our founder Fr. Stefano Manelli. Below are several pictures: From New Liturgical Movement and Rinascimento Sacro from their list of official images.

Ave Maria! Found this on Gloria.tv from our Mass in the Lateran Basilica on April 16, 2009, 800th anniversary of the approbation of the Rule of St Francis which took place at … this very basilica. Enjoy!

Highlights from the Solemn High Mass according to the Extraordinary Form, celebrated in Saint John Lateran Basilica, by the Franciscan Friars and Sisters of the Immaculate. All sacred music sung by the Friars and Sisters (Polyphony and Gregorian Chant) This is the first time that the traditional Mass has been celebrated in the pope’s chair since Vatican II. Quite a magnificent sight to behold! Video from Gloria TV
