LMS Latin Course: photos

For the first time the Latin Mass Society has two Residential Latin Courses in one year, because last year the summer course was over-subscribed. Last week the second of the 2026 courses took place, at the Carmelite Retreat Centre, Boar's Hill near Oxford.



It is a small event, but year by year we have helped a lot of priests, seminarians, and lay people recover their heritage of Latin, and of other aspects of Catholic tradition. Participants have daily Mass, they sing Compline together, and this year we had a Missa cantata for the feast of the Visitation. We had two priests, an Oratorian novice and a young man about to try his vocation with the Institute of the Good Shepherd. Latin students of all abilities should try it out, for an intense week of learning in a relaxed Catholic atmosphere.
