O holy Child of Bethlehem,
descend to us, we pray;
cast out our sin and enter in;
be born in us today.
During the month of November, weekly Masses were celebrated for the intentions of Latin Mass Society members and benefactors. Members and benefactors were invited to send us the names of deceased persons they wished to have prayed for; hundreds of people were prayed for at these Masses.
The Latin Mass Society's Shop has been stocked with a range of items suitable for the celebration of Advent and Christmas. We offer a selection of devotional books to take you through the season of Advent, and books that tell the great story of Christmas. We also offer an attractive range of Christmas cards, a calendar for 2025, and an updated Ordo for 2025. We encourage you to place orders as soon as possible to ensure delivery by Christmas. The office will be closed between Christmas and New Year.
Please visit lms.org.uk/Christmas to browse our festive items.
A Requiem Mass will be offered each week throughout November 2024 for the intentions of Latin Mass Society members and benefactors. The first of these will be the LMS Annual High Requiem Mass, which this year will be held at the Birmingham Oratory on All Souls' Day, Saturday 2 November, at 11.00 am. The other Masses will be offered as private celebrations each week throughout the month. Members and benefactors can leave the names of deceased persons they wish to pray for here.

LMS patron James MacMillan has started a change.org petition to "Stop the ban on the Traditional Latin Mass". This petition follows his letter to The Times on July 3rd, which included Catholic and non-Catholic signatories, stressing the importance of the Old Rite and imploring Rome not to introduce further restrictions on the Mass.
PRESS RELEASE - Latin Mass Society Patrons lead a joint letter to save the Traditional Mass
The Latin Mass Society welcomes the intervention of 48 prominent figures of culture, academia, and politics, including Catholics and non-Catholics, in a letter to The Times published today, in support of the Traditional Mass.
The letter appeals to the value of the ancient Mass both as a cultural artefact—‘a cathedral of text and gesture’—and an irreplaceable spiritual treasure, with a unique ability to ‘encourage silence and contemplation’.
The latest issue of Mass of Ages is now published and available to read online.
Mass of Ages is the quarterly magazine of the Latin Mass Society. It contains reports on our many activities across the country, national and international news of Traditional Catholic events, feature articles on different aspects of traditional Faith and culture, and opinions and views on developments in the Catholic Church.
You can read the latest issue on Issu here.
We appeal to our members, supporters, and well-wishers to pray a Novena with us for a special intention:
beginning on Tuesday 21st May,
and culminating on the eve of Corpus Christi, Wednesday 29th May.
This is not some matter of international importance, pertaining to just one diocese, but it is of great importance for those concerned, and it is emblematic of the sufferings of Catholics attached to the Traditional Mass which have followed Pope Francis’ Apostolic Letter Traditionis custodes.
There will be a pilgrimage in honour of the English Martyrs in Preston on Saturday 4th May. The pilgrimage will begin with devotions in the Church of St Walburge at 10.30am before pilgrims process to the Church of the English Martyrs, which is a distance of about a mile. There will be a Solemn Mass offered by the Canons of the Institute of Christ the King at the English Martyrs Church beginning at around 11.30 and this will be followed by veneration of relics. Tea and coffee will be provided after Mass.
