Archdiocese of Detroit: Parishes Must Cease Traditional Latin Mass Celebrations by July 1...
LATIN TO REMAIN
"It was the
will of the Eternal Father that one universal language be used along with, in
comparison with, together with the language of the land. This universal
language, Latin, befit and was chosen by the Eternal Father as a universal
language for the universal Church, the Roman Catholic Church under the
leadership of Pope Paul VI, the successor of Peter....
Because of the fall in Babylon, many new languages were given because of the sin
of Babylon. Therefore, as a member of one country, My children, with a universal
language, you carried with you your own country's translation, and were you to
visit abroad, you could enter upon any foreign edifice, Church of My Son, and
feel comfortable and in one with the man, the priest, the one chosen by My Son
to represent Him in His House.
If you were, My child, to
go from your United States to France, could you understand the words in French?
But, My child, you would recognize the words in Latin and you would have your
book with you to read in your American language, just as those in France could
read in their French language, bringing upon the world a beautiful and common
bond of language among all who have been given the grace to be called to the
Roman Catholic Church of My Son.
Do not leave My Son's
Church though, My children, because they have taken this language from among
you. You must wait and persevere and weep with My Son for this defilement by
man." - Our Lady, April 10, 1976

Archbishop Edward Weisenburger of Detroit announced Wednesday that parish churches in the archdiocese that offer the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) will be unable to do so after July 1, citing the Vatican’s 2023 clarification that diocesan bishops do not possess the authority to allow the TLM to be celebrated in an existing parish church.
A prominent Detroit shrine will still be able to offer the TLM, however, and Weisenburger said he intends to identify at least four non-parish locations in the archdiocese where the TLM can be celebrated.
In an April 16 announcement, the archdiocese said Weisenburger, who was appointed in February and newly installed as archbishop last month, recently told his priests that he is unable to renew the prior permissions given to parish churches to celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass, and thus those permissions will expire on July 1.
At issue is Pope Francis’ consequential apostolic letter Traditionis Custodes, issued in July 2021. Among other provisions, the letter directed bishops to designate one or more locations in which priests can celebrate the TLM but specified that those locations could not be within an existing parish church.
Following Traditionis Custodes, bishops in some dioceses that already had thriving Latin Mass communities within parish churches — in places like Denver; Lake Charles, Louisiana; and Springfield, Illinois — granted broad dispensations that allowed parishes to continue offering the Latin Mass as before.
In February 2023, however, the Vatican issued a clarification to Traditionis Custodes to halt this approach, stating that bishops alone cannot dispense these parishes and that such an action is reserved “to the Apostolic See.” Bishops in other dioceses who received Vatican approval to dispense certain parishes from Traditionis Custodes were only granted that permission for a temporary period.
“The Holy See has reserved for itself the ability to allow the Traditional Latin Mass to be celebrated in parish churches. Local bishops no longer possess the ability to permit this particular liturgy in a parish church,” the announcement from the Detroit Archdiocese reads.
“With this in mind, the prior permissions to celebrate this liturgy in archdiocesan parish churches — which expire on July 1, 2025 — cannot be renewed.”
The ministry of St. Joseph Shrine in Detroit, which offers daily Traditional Latin Masses under the care of the canons of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest (ICKSP), will continue, Weisenburger said. ICKSP, an institute whose priests celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass and live according to the spirituality of St. Francis de Sales, has been offering the TLM at the St. Joseph Shrine since 2016.
“In addition to the exception referenced above, the Traditional Latin Mass may be permitted by the local bishop to be celebrated in non-parish settings (typically chapels, shrines, etc.),” the archdiocesan announcement continues.
“It is the archbishop’s intention to identify a non-parish setting where the Traditional Latin Mass may be celebrated in each of the archdiocese’s four regions. As noted above, and in accordance with recent decisions by the Vatican’s Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, these locations will not be parish churches. Once these locations are determined, they will be shared with the faithful.”
Former Detroit archbishop Allen Vigneron, who led the archdiocese from 2009 until his resignation at the customary age of 75 in February, issued guidelines following Traditionis Custodes allowing parishes to request permission to continue to offer the TLM within certain limits. Those guidelines came into force on July 1, 2022.
Detroit is not the first diocese to have announced an end to the TLM in parish churches as a result of the Vatican’s clarification. In 2022, Bishop Stephen Parkes of Savannah, Georgia, announced his diocese’s cessation of Traditional Latin Masses by May 2023, saying the permission he had sought and received from the Vatican to allow two parish churches to continue offering the TLM had expired.
Other dioceses, such as Albany, New York, in 2023, revoked the permission it had previously given for two parishes to celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass in order to comply with the Vatican’s February 2023 clarification.

“DO NOT BE DELUDED”
“Pray, My children. A
constant vigilance of prayer must be kept throughout your country and the world.
Do not abandon My Son in His Church. Do not be deluded by those who call the
Mass invalid. My Son is there. He does not want the doors to close in His
houses, His Church, for He is the door. Though robbers and thieves often enter,
He is still the door. Come and seek Him in His House.”
- Our Lady, September 13, 1978
