The Collect of the Day

The Collect of the Day, which is updated daily, is taken from the Proper of the Season according to the 1962 missal. Included is the epistle or lesson and the Gospel to be read at that day’s Mass, excerpts from Butler’s Lives of the Saints, (the Benzinger Brother’s Edition), Dom Prosper Guéranger's The Liturgical Year, and the Roman Breviary.

Accompanying the classic prayers and spiritual readings are examples of the great works of art inspired by our Catholic heritage. By clicking on the images you can view a larger version of the picture, and links to the artists are also provided. Special thanks to the Web Gallery of Art for providing much of the information and on-line images of these masterpieces. Please take some time to browse this wonderful website and visit their sponsors.

The Propers of the Traditional Latin Mass demonstrate the rich depth and spiritual fecundity of Catholicism. In particular the Collect of the Day of the Traditional Latin Mass, vastly different from those used in the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite, are highly instructive for those wishing to live as traditional Catholics. If prayed in all sincerity, the traditional Collects will form sentiments that are distinctively traditional.

The prayers of our liturgical heritage, particularly the Collects, formed the consciences of generations of Catholics, and gave rise to the greatest masterpieces of literature, painting, sculpture, and music. Liturgical prayer forms Catholic culture, and rediscovering traditional liturgical prayer will help to rebuild an authentic Catholic culture that is broad, provocative, intellectually stimulating, emotionally satisfying, and spiritually nourishing.

Live as a Traditional Catholic for just one month, and it will so enrich your life, so enthrall your mind and spirit, and bring you so close to our Blessed Lord that you will desire nothing else save heaven.
