Coming Event: Martin Mosebach and Luc Perrin to Speak about the Church and the Liturgy Today

On Tuesday, May 12, at Holy Innocents Church, the Society of St. Hugh of Cluny will sponsor Professor Luc Perrin of the University of Strasbourg, France, and Martin Mosebach, prominent German author.

Professor Perrin is perhaps the foremost historian of the Catholic Traditionalist movement in France and in the world. He is also active in the training of seminarians.

His talk is entitled: “From Benedict to Francis, the Church in Europe at a New Crossroads.”

Martin Mosebach is one of the foremost authors of Germany. Best known in his home country as a novelist and essayist, he is most familiar to the English-speaking Catholic world as the author of the seminal work on the Traditional liturgy, The Heresy of Formlessness.

His talk is entitled: “Paradise on Earth: the Liturgy as a Window on the Hereafter.”

Solemn Traditional Mass at the Church of the Holy Innocents at 6 pm

The talks begin in Holy Innocents Hall in the lower level at 7:30 pm.

Admission is free.
