The third annual Summórum Pontíficum pilgrimage to Rome will be held October 23-26, 2014. Each year, pilgrims attend a Solemn Tridentine Mass celebrated in one of the Roman Basilicas, in thanksgiving for Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI’s Motu Proprio of the same name. Originally organized by members of Una Voce from Ireland, the pilgrimage now has a chaplain, Fr. Claude Barthe, a well-known advocate of the Extraordinary Form who speaks at numerous conferences.
The hosting organization has begun a Facebook presence under the name Pópulus Summórum Pontíficum. Their Facebook posts consist primarily of pictures of Tridentine Masses held around the world in various photogenic churches. Fans of traditional architecture will find inspiring eye candy here.
