The Latin Mass Society of Ireland:  where to find Traditional Masses in Ireland, and information about the The Latin Mass Society of Ireland (LMSI).  The LMSI, founded in 1999, is an association of Catholic faithful dedicated to the preservation of the traditional Latin Mass as one of the legitimate forms of the Church's liturgy. Whilst it is composed predominantly of lay members drawn from every age group and walk of life, it also includes a number of priests who wish to minister to all who request access to the former sacramental rites of the Church.
