Archbishop Raymond Burke established the Canons Regular of the New Jerusalem in the Diocese of La Crosse (Wis.) on June 22, 2002. The Canons relocated to the Archdiocese of St. Louis in November of 2004. Archbishop Burke noted the worthy celebration of the traditional Catholic liturgy in Latin as being at the heart of spirituality and work of the CRNJ. The Canons Regular of the New Jerusalem seek perfection of the worship of God using the 1962 liturgy in the celebration of Holy Mass in its historic Latin form, consistent, Bishop Burke noted, with his holiness Pope John Paul's Ecclesia Dei Adflicta of 1988. This site, therefore, is made available to those seeking a means of giving glory to God through the religious life and to those who seek to worship Him by means of the traditional Latin Mass and liturgy. http://www.canonsregular.com/ |
