Some First Photographs From Cardinal Burke's Mass in Rome Today

Today, His Eminence Cardinal Raymond Burke celebrated a Pontifical Mass in the Basilica of San Nicola in Carcere in Rome, as the concluding event of a meeting of the Confraternity of Catholic Clergy conference. We will have more photographs of the event later, but here are a few preliminary images. The music by the Lassus Scholars of Dublin was absolutely perfect, a beautiful compliment to a graceful and dignified ceremony, and yes, that is Fr Zuhlsdorf you see serving there as the subdeacon. These photos come to us courtesy of the Parish of Bl. John Henry Newman, whose parish priest, Fr Glen Tattersall, organized the liturgy, and served as the assistant priest. The organizers would also like to express their gratitude to Fr. Joseph Kramer, the pastor of the F.S.S.P.’s Roman parish, Santissima Trinità dei Pellegrini, for his invaluable assistance in providing resources necessary to the ceremony.
