The Mass -Old and New

Thoughtful article by Leo Darroch

"I think it is true to say, for many of us, that we do not fully appreciate our parents until after they have gone. When they are with us we take them for granted because they have always been there, reliable and seemingly with an air of surety and permanence. But when they have gone we are left with a huge hole in our lives that for the rest of our days is never adequately filled."

The same can be said for Church closures. But while humans are mortal, there is no reason why Churches and the Latin Mass should not continue. If you see the great victories won by Catholicism, nothing should be considered inevitable as the closers of Churches maintain.
