39% of priests in the United States ordained after the year 2000 consider access to the Traditional Latin Mass a priority -- 1in 4, compared with just 11%, or 1 in 10, for priests ordained before 1980.
The numbers come from this study ("Morale, Leadership, and Pastoral Priorities: Highlights from the 2025 National Study of Catholic Priests"), published today by The Catholic Project of the Catholic University of America (CUA).
It is quite astonishing, and a clear trend. Woe to the bishops who ignore them.
