with Rome, including those who are devoted to the Traditional Latin Mass (Extraordinary Form). In the words of our founding pastor, Msgr. Marino Priori: “The church is the temple of the Lord, the gate of heaven. Come after a week of earthly cares, after so much toil, after so many sorrows, after so much pain. Rest your limbs. Regenerate your spirit at the sources of grace. Raise your mind to God; thank Him for the benefits received through His creation and in daily life; ask for strength so you can win all of life’s struggles, and be able to possess The Italian Parish of Indianapolis the fruits of redemption.”
