ECCLESIASTICAL LATIN CLASS…
“Say your Pater, Ave, and Credo in Latin so as to join in the universal language of the Church.” - St. Francis de Sales
“The Roman Church has special obligations towards Latin, the splendid language of ancient Rome, and she must manifest them whenever the occasion presents itself.” -Pope John Paul II
If enough express interest in taking classes in Ecclesiastical Latin at the Oratory, a class can soon be formed, offered at a reasonable fee. Please contact Mr. Roche at the Rectory to leave your contact information.
Many people have expressed interest in taking classes in Ecclesiastical Latin, and a preliminary meeting will be held in the basement hall of Saint Francis de Sales Oratory on Sunday, March 2nd, 2008, at 1:00 p.m. Classes to be taught by James Mooney.

Non tam praeclarum est scire Latine, quam turpe nescire.— Cicero, Brutus xxxvii.140
It is not so much excellent to know Latin, as it is a shame not to know it.
