This site is produced by David Forster, of Oxfordshire, England.

The primary aim of this project is to make available in electronic form some of the major texts of the traditional Latin liturgy of the Roman Catholic church,  for the use of Catholic traditionalists and liturgical scholars.  It will also make available other information and texts which are thought to be useful for the promotion of the Catholic tradition.

The Liturgia Latina project was begun in the year 2000 to honour the opening of the third millennium since Our Lord's Nativity.

Is dedicated to Our Lord and His Immaculate Mother, and is under the patronage of St. Philip Neri and St. Benedict. It is also dedicated to all those priests and bishops who have ensured that the traditional Latin liturgy continues to be celebrated.

Please pray for the success of the project.

Ut in omnibus glorificetur Deus
