Pope Benedict XVI Long-time Supporter of the Traditional Latin Mass

Una Voce America Rejoices Over New Pope
Pope John Paul II called for world-wide access to the traditional Latin Mass for all Catholics. Una Voce is an organization dedicated to carrying out this papal request and looks forward to working with the new Pope. As Cardinal Ratzinger, Pope Benedict XVI showed great support for the traditional Latin Mass and Una Voce.
...
He has been an outspoken supporter of the work of Una Voce, an international organization devoted to promoting the traditional Mass saying “the International Una Voce Federation has played an important role in supporting the use of the 1962 edition of the Roman Missal in obedience to the directives of the Holy See. For this valuable service I express my gratitude to the members of the Federation and extend my blessing."
