Cardinal Eijk's Latin Mass

His Eminence was given the Red Hat by Pope Benedict XVI in 2012. He is probably the best Cardinal in all of the Netherlands or Germany. Not that that's a very high bar!

Cardinal Willem Eijk, of Utrecht, celebrated his public Latin Mass (Pontifical High Mass) yesterday, at the Church of the Immaculate Conception (better known as Grote Kerk, the Great Church) in Oss, in the Netherlands.


A large number of faithful were present for the Laetare Sunday Mass. Ad multos annos, Cardinal!
