The purpose of this site is both to help those who are new to the Extraordinary Form and to provide English translations of the Mass texts that are easy to read on mobile devices at a time when many parishes are unable to handout copies of “the red book” or the propers. Here are a few links:
- What to expect at your first Extraordinary Form Mass
- Brief introduction including active participation, etc.
- Differences between Low, High and Solemn Masses
- Resources for learning more
