Italy [Kreuz.net] Recently Father Jean-Pierre Herman - the Secretary of Archbishop André-Joseph Léonard of Brussels -- wanted to celebrate the Immemorial Mass in Milan's Cathedral. This is according to the website 'BLOG messalatino.it'. Father Herman was there for a meeting about Bl. John Henry Cardinal Newman and the Liturgy in Milan. For starters he was forbidden to celebrate the Old Mass in the Cathedral. Then he contacted the Papal Commission 'Ecclesia Dei'. They intervened and concluded that the priest could celebrate the Mass behind closed doors within Cathedral with only one altar boy.
Editor: This is +Tettamanzi's watch.
This where the rubber meets the road, where the dictates of Summorum Pontificum are either going to be enforced, or simply allowed to become a dead letter. SP makes it perfectly clear that no Bishop has the right to restrict this Mass in the way described above.

ReplyDeleteTwo corrections : I am not THE secretary of Archbishop Leonard, but only one of the collaborators to his secretariate. Secondly, it was not in Milan's Cathedral, but in Seregno, 60 km from Milan, after a lecture on Blessed Cardinal Newman.
