St. Mark 13:7
"And when you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, fear ye not. For such things must needs be, but the end is not yet."
"Latin Mass is hard to understand and difficult to learn.
Mass is boring. Why should I go?"
Mass is boring. Why should I go?"
These are common feelings, especially among young people but among many adults as well. If we have a correct understanding of Mass, it will become more meaningful for us. We will want to go to Mass. We will understand why the Mass is God's precious gift to us, and we wouldn't think of refusing that gift.
The Mass is not entertainment. It is worship of the God who made us and saves us. It is an opportunity to praise God and thank Him for all that He has done for us. Our ancestors risked persecution, even death, to be able to take part in Mass. When you have children someday, they will need the graces and strength that come from the Mass. If you fail to pass it on because of your own indifference, you will do the gravest injustice to them and to God. This is an enormous responsibility. You will have to answer to God for it.

Chastisement is coming. Grab the opportunity to attend the Traditional Mass and receive the Traditional Sacraments for they will be difficult to access.
Blessed Anna Maria Taigi [1837]:
"God will ordain two punishments: One, in the form of wars, revolutions and other evils, will originate on earth; the other will be sent from Heaven. There shall come over all the earth an intense darkness lasting three days and three nights. The air will be laden with pestilence, which will claim principally but not exclusively the enemies of religion."
Joel 2:31
"The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood: before the great and dreadful day of the Lord doth come."

Nothing is more important than the Mass. Here are some photos of priests offering Mass during wartime, taken from various places and locations.
