Welcome!

Welcome to Our Lady of Sorrows Catholic Church, Miami’s first home for the Traditional Latin Mass. The priests and parishioners of Our Lady of Sorrows strive to preserve the authentic, timeless, and unchanging faith and worship of the Roman Catholic Church.

We do so by adhering to all that was taught and done by the church before the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) and the aftermath of sweeping changes that followed. We do so, not out of mere nostalgia, nor out of rebellious disobedience, but out of a deep love for the Holy Catholic Church and for the deposit of Faith which Our Lord Jesus Christ entrusted to her.

We do not claim to have all the precise solutions to the current crisis of faith that has been wrought upon the Church, nor do we claim to have the authority to bind the conscience of the faithful in these current issues. Rather, our response to the current crisis is simply to believe, live, and proclaim the Catholic Faith in its integrity. We exist as a refuge for the Catholic faithful who have grown weary of liturgical abuse and unsound teaching in modern parishes. We strive to be an oasis of spiritual peace for Catholics amidst the chaos in the Church and in the world; and we welcome all who share in our desire to simply be devoted Catholics, united by the bonds of true faith, firm hope, and Christ-like charity!

If you would like to learn more, please join us for Sunday Mass! After Mass the priests and faithful usually gather in the Social Hall, and one of the priests will be happy to speak with you and arrange an appointment.
