You think? I mean, how obvious can you get? I’d like to hear @Chrystal-J ‘s thoughts on this. She lives in the area.
I heard that the bishop was very against the traditional Latin mass and forbade it's practice in the diocese. But, that's all I've heard at that level in the Church. I mainly just go to Mass and do the rosary, read the bible and pray at home.
