Rorate Cæli reports an initiative in Rome to draw attention to the licit nature of the Traditional Latin Mass. For the coming fortnight billboards in the areas around the Vatican will bear images of and quotations from Popes St Pius V, St John Paul II, and Benedict XVI about the legitimacy of the rite as promulgated in 1570. The posters are in Italian and English, and sponsored by groups who seek to maintain continuing and open access to the Mass in that historic form.
Coming just before Holy Week and Easter when so many of the faithful will doubtless be in Rome this is obviously designed to have maximum impact not just on the inmates of the Vatican but also on pilgrims.
The report about this excellent initiative can be seen at Dozens of billboards go up around Rome in defense of the TLM
