The Vatican has recently made the controversial decision to forbid the Traditional Latin Mass Pilgrimage from holding Mass at Covadonga Cathedral. This decision has sparked outrage among traditionalist Catholics and has raised questions about the state of the Church.
The Traditional Latin Mass Pilgrimage is a popular event that attracts a large number of young people. The pilgrimage is known for its focus on traditional liturgy and reverence for the Latin Mass. The decision to ban the pilgrimage from Covadonga Cathedral is believed to have been motivated by jealousy among older Modernist clerics, who may feel threatened by the growing popularity of traditional Catholic practices.
Covadonga Cathedral holds great significance in the history of the Catholic Church. It is located in Oviedo, the capital of the Kingdom of Asturias, which was the first post-Islamic invasion Christian kingdom in the Iberian peninsula. Covadonga is also the site of the first skirmish of the Reconquista and is a renowned Marian shrine.
Many Catholics are deeply disappointed by the Vatican’s decision to ban the Traditional Latin Mass Pilgrimage from Covadonga Cathedral. They see it as a sign of division within the Church and a rejection of traditional Catholic practices. The decision has also sparked debate about the direction of the Church and the role of tradition in modern Catholicism.
Those who support the Traditional Latin Mass Pilgrimage are calling for a reconsideration of the Vatican’s decision. They believe that traditional Catholic practices are important for the spiritual health of the Church and that the ban on the pilgrimage is unjust. They are urging the Vatican to uphold the rights of Catholics who wish to participate in traditional forms of worship.
Despite the controversy surrounding the ban on the Traditional Latin Mass Pilgrimage, many Catholics remain committed to their faith and to the traditions of the Church. They are hopeful that the Church will find a way to reconcile the differences within its ranks and move forward in unity and faith.
