About Me

My photo
Roman Sacristan
Grizzly young sacristan who loves liturgy and liturgical tradition. I have a bachelor's degree in Catholic theology from the University of Dallas (a Catholic college with a solid theology department). I've worked as a Sacristan in four different parishes in the U.S. and at a shrine in Italy. I'm hoping to make this blog a resource for priests and laity who want to introduce Latin into their parishes, as well as being a resource for doing liturgy correctly, especially in the Mass according to the 2002 Roman Missal, as Pope Benedict XVI called for in his accompanying letter to bishops on "Summorum Pontificum."
