One of George Cardinal Pell’s last public acts was to let it be known that he’d accepted an invitation from Notre-Dame de Chrétienté to offer the Traditional Latin Mass in the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Chartres on Pentecost Monday for the close of the 2023 Pilgrimage to Chartres, France.
This is arguably the largest and most public annual TLM in the world. Given the controversy surrounding Traditionis Custodes and the Vatican’s attempted suppression of the Latin Mass, participation in this event was indeed an act of courage and fidelity to Tradition on the part of His Eminence.
Today we received the following message which the late Cardinal wrote shortly before his sudden death on January 10th to an Australian friend of The Remnant, Ronan Reilly, who is Chairman of the Latin Mass Society Australia.
Please continue to remember the good Cardinal in your prayers.
