At St Aloysius Church in Caulfield/Melbourne, Australia, where the Roman Rite Mass is celebrated, every pew is filled on Sunday, many by young parishioners, writes ABC.Net.au (27 June).
More than half of the faithful is under 30.
The article quotes 23-year-old convert Llewellyn Beer: "Zoomers want authenticity more than anything, and I think you'll find that at a Latin Mass."
"Holy Mass is divine and so uncompromising - you're witnessing something beyond your own frail existence," says Elisha Andres, 21: "One can tell this Mass is not about oneself, it's not about entertainment, it's really about the Lord."
Rev. Glen Tattersall, also a convert, celebrates Mass at St Aloysius. He thinks Francis is "out of touch".
"I think he's kind of typical of his age and his background - he doesn't understand that we're not stuck in the 1960s anymore."
"He talks a lot about 'everyone is welcome in the Church', but I'm sorry to say that a lot of Catholics don't feel very welcome in this pontificate at …More

The Novus Ordo is for babies, the TLM is for men.

I'm only 22. All I got my whole life wwas VAtican II garbage, liberal priests in the parish, laywomen all over the altar, old nuns in their 70's in secular clothes as teachers, in highschool burned out liberal tired ol' guy Augustinian friars, in college, heretic Jesuits in their 70's. My prents both are just now 50 years of age. THey never got anything but VAtican II as well (except my DAd, who was not originally CAtholic). My Dad's parents (both still living), were born into the Assyrian Orthodox Church, but now go to the Greek Orthodox, which is practically the same. My Mom's parents faithfully go to Sunday MAss. None of my brothers or sisters or me go to MAss...except maybe Christmas.
THere's no TLM near us, but having seen it on YouTube, I cam understand why no one goes to the Vatican II MAss, or very few.
THere's one word to fit Francis papacy and the VAtican II Mass, besides heretical. That is BORING!!!!!
