"In the history of the liturgy there is growth and progress, but no rupture. What earlier generations held as sacred, remains sacred and great for us too, and it cannot be all of a sudden entirely forbidden or even considered harmful. It behooves all of us to preserve the riches which have developed in the Church's faith and prayer, and to give them their proper place." -- Excerpted from the Accompanying Letter to Summorum Pontificum, the Apostolic Letter of His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI recognizing the free availability of the Traditional Latin Mass, promulgated motu proprio (on his own initiative) and effective September 14, 2007. (See full text at left.) " Mater Dei Latin Mass Community at Harrisburg's St. Lawrence Chapel Mater Dei Community was established
