« Non tam præclarum
est scire Latine,
quam turpe nescire ».
“It is not so much excellent
to know Latin,
as it is a shame
not to know it”.
(Marcus Tullius Cicero,

Established in the Year of Our Lord Jesus Christ 2003,
the 25th year of the Pontificate
of Blessed Pope John Paul II, the Great.

On 28 June 2005, His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI urged Catholics throughout the world to memorize the
most common Catholic prayers in Latin, to “make it easier for the Christian faithful who speak different
languages to pray together, especially when they meet for special circumstances...”
“Precisely
in the multiplicity of languages and cultures, Latin, for so many centuries the vehicle and instrument of Christian culture,
not only guarantees continuity with our roots but continues to be as relevant as ever for strengthening the bonds of unity
of the faith in the communion of the Church”
(AAS 97 [2005], pp. 826-830).
