Cleveland is the city from which this website is published, and it is where the traditional Latin Mass is offered every day of the year at the Shrine of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary on Buckeye Road with the approbation of His Excellency, Bishop Edward C. Malesic of the Diocese of Cleveland in Ohio. These Masses are broadcast live to the world every day at https://propria.org/today as well as at https://tlm.live and https://YouTube.com/UsusAntiquior

On the afternoon of Monday, 8 April 2024, a total eclipse of the sun will be visible in our city. For the benefit of patrons of this website or the Usus Antiquior video channel who wish to view this eclipse but who live elsewhere, we will attempt to broadcast the eclipse live. The broadcast will begin at about 1:45 p.m. U.S. Eastern time. The eclipse in northeast Ohio, where Cleveland is located, will begin at about 1:57 p.m. U.S. Eastern time. It will become total between approximately 3:12 and 3:16 p.m., and will end at approximately 4:29 p.m.

It so happens that on Monday, 8 April 2024, the universal Church observes the Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is the celebration of the Incarnation of our God, Jesus Christ, in the womb of His most holy Mother and the continuation of the dawn of our salvation (which began with her Immaculate Conception, observed on 8 December).

Joy and peace to you!
