The Traditional Mass Is The Best Evangelizer

By FR. KEVIN M. CUSICK

The Traditional Latin Mass, in my experience, evangelizes in ways that the Novus Ordo does not.

In a new document issued June 29 this year, Desiderio Desideravi, Pope Francis makes claims about the Novus Ordo, which do not hold up and which better describe, in fact, the Traditional Latin Mass.

So often those who pronounce with authority on the Traditional Liturgy do not pray it and thus do not know or understand it. I have offered the two liturgies side by side for over a decade, observing most closely the prayer, and effects on the faithful praying, attending each.

He criticizes the Church’s Traditional Liturgy as a kind of empty formalism which cannot evangelize, when that is exactly what it has done for nearly 2,000 years.
