Today I am pleased to be able to published the full schedule of my upcoming lecture tour under the auspices of the Latin Mass Society of Australia. Nine public events will be spread over six locations from March 27 to April 7 (full details below). I cordially invite area readers of Rorate Caeli to attend.
Official Announcement from LMSA
Arranged to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the promulgation of the New Order of Mass by Pope Paul VI in the Apostolic Constitution Missale Romanum of April 3rd, 1969, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski’s tour promises a timely analysis of the theories, events, personalities, and documents which led to the current liturgical landscape. Dr. Kwasniewski will deliver lectures, field questions, sign books, and meet with guests in Brisbane, Wagga Wagga, Melbourne, Hobart, and Sydney. The Latin Mass Society of Australia views the tour as an opportunity for factual critiques, intellectual debate, and renewed commitment to restoring the Church’s public worship.
