The second in a series by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf about the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.
In this short series, we are looking into what Bishop Robert C. Morlino has been doing with the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.
You will occasionally see a news story about him celebrating a “Pontifical Mass at the Throne.”
