The abbot of the historic Abbey of Solesmes in France has sent Pope Leo a letter proposing the integration of the old and new forms of the Mass into a single missal to restore unity across the Church.
Monday’s meeting was significant, representing Leo XIV’s first clear, personal outreach to a leading traditional community and showing his willingness to listen to their concerns.
In an undelivered consistory address, the prefect for the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments reiterated that the 1969 Missal of Paul VI should be ‘the sole expression’ of the Roman Rite liturgy.
The liturgies are being celebrated over the next month at a time when Pope Leo XIV is weighing up whether to continue restrictions imposed by Pope Francis' 2021 apostolic letter ‘Traditionis Custodes.'
As restrictions take effect, families in Tryon grieve the loss of a cherished liturgy that shaped their faith and community life.
ANALYSIS: Since the new Pope assumed office on May 8, several prelates who had previously kept silent under Pope Francis have spoken out in favor of the TLM.
The FSSP’s removal marks the latest flashpoint in a national struggle over the implementation of ‘Traditionis Custodes’ and the place of the traditional Latin Mass.
Answering a question from CNA during a press conference on another topic, the director of the Holy See Press Office called published reports ‘a very partial and incomplete reconstruction of the decision-making process.’ At the same time, he refused to confirm the documents’ authenticity.
Several options are available to the Holy Father, who has pledged to heal divisions and build bridges within the Church.
The letter suggests that four other parishes offering the Traditional Latin Mass will also be forced to halt the pre-Vatican II liturgical form.
