4th SUMMORUM PONTIFICUM ENCOUNTER IN ROME: THE COMPLETE AGENDA
Friday 26 to Sunday 28 of October 2018: those
are the dates of the seventh international pilgrimage of the People of Summorum
Pontificum in Rome. Throughout those three Roman days the pilgrims will pray
for the Church and for holiness in the priesthood in these dark times with their numerous
scandals. As we have announced in our recent letters on the topic, Bishop Czeslaw
Kozon of Copenhagen—a diocese that covers all Denmark, the Faroe Islands,
and Greenland—will guide the pilgrims on their way to Saint Peter’s.
Friday October 26, as a preamble to the
pilgrimage, Paix Liturgique, with the
support of the International Federations Una Voce and Juventutem, has organized
a day of meetings to explore the growth of the extraordinary form of the Roman rite
across the globe. Here is the complete agenda with all the information
necessary to take part in it.
At the day’s end, the pilgrimage opening Mass will be held at 6pm at Saint
Trinità dei Pellegrini church and will be offered in thanksgiving for the Fraternity of Saint Peter’s thirtieth anniversary by Fr. Charles Ike, an FSSP priest
ordained in 2017 in Nigeria.
