A Dominican on the Older Form of the Roman Rite

Most Holy Father,
I was born 57 years ago and joined the Dominican Order 35 years ago. I took my perpetual vows 29 years ago and have been a priest now for 28 years. I had only vague recollections from my early childhood of the Holy Mass in its form predating the reforms of 1970. https://t.co/LeQeMziMRk

"We Are a Synodal Church"

In new interview Pope Francis says that priests wanting to start celebrating the Old Rite require permission from Rome "the kind of permission of bi-ritualism, which is given only by Rome. [Like] a priest who celebrates the Eastern Rite and the Latin Rite" https://t.co/M3pzp5NEQp

The Underlying Issue is Latin Ecclesiology

Legislation, writes liturgical scholar and historian Dom Alcuin Reid, cannot change historical facts. Nor can an act of legal positivism determine what is or is not part of the 'lex orandi' of the Church.https://t.co/8aAkUfALFH
