“It behooves all of us to preserve the riches which have developed in the Church’s faith and prayer, and to give them their proper place.”
–Benedict XVI, issuing Summorum Pontificum
The ancient Dominican liturgy, largely unchanged since 1256, beautifully expresses the distinctive charism of the primitive Dominican Order. This site, a project of the Liturgical Commission of the Dominican Province of St. Joseph, makes accessible the riches of the ancient Dominican liturgy – not as a rival to the Novus Ordo, which remains the Ordinary Form of the Mass, but as a supplement to enrich our liturgical life with the treasures of our tradition, consistent with the express wishes of the Second Vatican Council (Sacrosanctum Concilium 4).

Being educated by the Dominican Sister in Argentina I am very sad to see how deteriorated and light form of Mass celebration is happening nowadays.
I wish that more was done to re-establish the traditional form of Mass.
