Rorate Caeli

Plenary Indulgence for those going to Madrid;
Partial indulgence for those praying for WYD


Those not going to Madrid may gain partial indulgences if they "pray for the spiritual purposes of this meeting and for its happy outcome". Time to pray for those numerous well-meaning traditional-minded young Catholics who will take part in Juventutem activities, and for the traditional priests and religious accompanying them - and gain indulgences at the same time!

According to Juventutem USA, the catecheses and public Masses will be celebrated mostly in Saint Edward (San Eduardo) parish [Update: Venue changed to San Francisco de Sales: see here] ; and other activities, including adoration, Vespers, Compline (and, certainly, Masses), at the church of the Third Monastery of the Visitation (Tercer Monasterio de la Visitación), the venue of daily diocesan Traditional Masses in Madrid. If you know a young Catholic going to Madrid who is not very much aware of Traditional Catholic practices, you may guide this young man or young woman to some Juventutem activities (times here): Visitación is near the Guzmán el Bueno (Lines 6, 7) and Cuatro Caminos  (Lines 1, 2, 6) metro stations.
