Mass of the Ages introduced me to the TLM and subsequently my re-conversion back to the faith. I pray for many more. Sancte Joseph, ora pro nobis!

[Noelets]

I'm seminarian from the Philippines and I am about to finish the theology months from now. Please pray for me that my Bishop will allow me to celebrate TLM. 😊 I followed all the videos of Mass of the Ages. Thank you for these great gifts. ❤

During episode 1 my wife and I had never been to a TLM. After episode 1 we went to a local FSSP parish. Which turned out to be an incredibly beautiful church and mass. Now in episode 3 we are regular attendees to the TLM through FSSP and I can say when we make the occasional Sunday to the novus ordo it doesn’t feel the same. The reverence is gone, the people aren’t taking it as seriously and it does impact the way you receive the Host. The TLM truly is a great treasure and it’s no wonder why it lasted through the ages. For me personally, it is a special time out of my week where it’s not about me. Not about entertainment. Not about modernity. It’s truly a moment in time to worship our God.

Thank you for this film. The beginning absolutely broke my heart to see the hotel lady absolutely clueless. Thanks be to God for the SSPX who brought TLM to Kenya!

[MylesGriffin]

The Latin Mass changed this fellow African Catholic's life. Not sure if I would be where I am today if the Latin mass hadn't restored my faith in God and the church!

[IsabellaKathryn]

I’m a fourteen year old catechumen in the church (to be received this Easter vigil). My parents are atheist (keep that in mind) and when I was looking for a denomination/church the TLM is what led me to Catholicism. Where I used to live (Southern California) we had a Latin mass within 20 minutes of our house that our neighbors would take me to. Now sadly I live in a small town (northern Arizona) that only has 3 Catholic Churches that are all Novus Ordo. I don’t hate the novus Ordo but I love the TLM and the closest TLM is 45 minutes but I’m 14 so I can’t drive. I hope we get more near my house, but I finish my conversion soon which is exciting! Please pray for me and pray that my parents come to the faith 🙏 I hope one day more TLM churches are built and we are able to celebrate the Mass in, I truly believe the TLM will bring more people to the church and I hope the Pope realizes how crucial the Tridentine Mass is.

My heart aches looking at abandoned churches. I can’t imagine how sad the Lord feels. God have mercy!

[benbowers]

I’m being baptized next weekend at the Easter Vigil. I’m a fallen man who was raised Baptist. The fact God not only led me to the Church he founded but also has led me to find a beautifully made series of Mass of the Ages is amazing to me. God is profound.

[Mariasol]

Thanks to the FSSPX for bringing TLM to Costa Rica 🇨🇷! Is growing and we are like kids learning to love more and more Our Lord!! ❤

[gabogc]

Here in the Philippines 🇵🇭 we are also fighting for the latin mass.

[Vboogaloo]

The soundtrack for this is absolutely glorious! Some gorgeous pieces of music.

[Submit-to-Rome]

The SSPX ultimately was what led me to converting from protestantism (specifically pentecostal) to the catholic church. Forever thankful for the Latin Mass, its defenders and the real tradition of the church. If the TLM was allowed to flourish and be celebrated more, many more protestants would convert! I'm now regularly attending the TLM and pray that the TLM will come back and bring more lost brethren to the faith.

[sammcpeak]

I am a diocesan seminarian but I am blessed to have a large FSSP apostolate as my home parish that I am able to serve at from time to time when I am home from the seminary and that my parents still attend weekly. You’ll find many of our seminarians go there when they are in the area and I will be blessed to serve there for the triduum. There is great hope in the new generation of priests regarding tradition. And there are a few good bishops still out there, including mine. I am forever indebted to the FSSP for rekindling my love for the Church and the liturgy.

[mayahbreannewabe]

Thank you SSPX for bringing the TLM in the Philippines. Deo Gratias et Mariae!

[awateredgarden]

I’m four minutes in and crying.
My heart is so heavy. These beautiful places, so sacred, holy and set apart for God in the midst of this chaotic world, stripped of everything beautiful and true.
It’s like the story of the Israelites falling into the hands of Babylon all over again because they fell away from God even though He rescued them and gave them life.
I will cause your enemies to rule over you - Leviticus 26:14-45
May God be with us and rebuild what we have lost.
Jesus says, even the gates of hell will not prevail - Matthew 16:17-19
In this I have hope eternal.
Jesus, our Immanuel is with us, even to the end of the age.
Matthew 28:20

[mariealyssa]

Absolutely heart wrenching to see the beginning with the beautiful structures used for hotels now and rock concerts. But by the end you’re left with the feeling of hope and inspiration. Well done! Thank you Jesus!

[SummerLove-yvkf]

I am not Catholic but Protestant. I began crying just a few minutes with the desecration of the holy places. I cannot deny I am moved deeply by this.

Saint Joseph, Protector of the Church intercede for the TLM!

[kimprimavera]

The Benedictine nuns are so full of joy. We saw and heard it when we visited Gower.
