Photos: Cardinal Burke at the London Oratory

From the New Liturgical Movement: The formal photos are now in from Cardinal Burke's Pontifical Mass, celebrated at the London Oratory on the occasion of St. Philip's Day -- St. Philip Neri, of course, being the founder of the Oratory.

The full text of the Cardinal's homily has been published by the Catholic Herald here: ‘Never cease to centre your lives in the Sacred liturgy’.

In that homily, Cardinal Burke commented upon St. Philip's love of the sacred liturgy, and the attention to beauty in the sacred liturgy and liturgical arts:

...it is important to underline one aspect, that is, Saint Philip’s attention to the beauty of the Sacred Liturgy, of the art and architecture of churches and chapels, and of everything employed for the worship of God. Saint Philip understood that our lives are first and foremost centered upon Christ, firmly and fully grafted into His Life, by means of Sacred Worship.

Sidenote: Our former priest at St. Stanislaus, Canon Meney, was transferred to England to form a chapter of the Institute of Christ the King there. I searched high and low for an article I remember seeing about it but came up empty. So if any of our readers have the article readily available, comment or email it to me and I will add it to this article!

Update: Thanks to reader James for the link. You can read about the TLM in England and the re-opening of a parish where the worship will be in the Extraordinary Form here. More than 1,000 people attended the solemn Latin Mass with the Bishop.
