- Depending on who you ask, Archbishop Lefebvre is either a figure admired or reviled. He founded the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X and was a champion for the preservation of the Traditional Latin Mass - The Mass of the Ages. In this video, I restore this antique Graduale Romanum which is used for referencing chants during Holy Mass. Surprisingly, it also contains his autograph and perhaps will be a relic one day. Deo Volente.
I also tell you the story of the first SSPX Mass I ever went to!

Dude. You’re a legend for doing this
Kennedy Hall everybody! Thanks for the kind words brother.
I enjoyed this video very much! 🙏From seeing you work with so much thought, care and skill to the way you shared your thoughts about the Mass, and fatherhood and Abp. Lefebvre, it was truly special, as is the book that you've restored. Wonderful!! 👏👏👏 Deo gratias for Abp. Lefebvre! 🙏And my prayers for you and your family.
Thank you so much!
Incredible!! What a fruitful restoration
I appreciate this ❤
Amazing ! Thank you
Beautiful work. May God bless you in preserving and promoting the worth and retention of Christian culture and treasures.
Thank you for the encouragement. May God bless your efforts!
Great video on the craftsmanship of book restoration and commentary on Abp Lefebvre! What a treasure you have in that book!
Santo subito!
Wonderful. It is not just the book which is so beautifully restored, but the treasure that is Holy Mother Church. This is the most moving video I have seen in a very long time. Thank you and God bless you.
Archbishop Lefebvre, Ora pro nobis!!!
A work of art Rudy, fantastic job. As Colleen said, Archbishop Lefebvre, ora pro nobis.
What a fascinating vocation you have. Quite possibly, the good Archbishop Lefevbre will be canonized some day.
Let me grab my tub of popcorn... Ready for the status quo ordo Catholics from st. typical's to blast you as a schismatic in the comments... Beautiful cinematography and I love the story you told with this restoration! Salve Maria! May God bless Archbishop Lefebvre and the SSPX.
Very well-made video! I appreciated the alternations between book work and commentary. It flowed well. I personally would have loved to see even more of the restoration process, as I could tell there was a lot you probably decided to cut from the final video. I'm fascinated by the process and can tell you are a master!
Thanks Anthony. I do have a more in depth restoration video on my channel if you’re interested. It’s a prayer book from the early 1800s.
You did an excellent job in restoring the Liber Usualis, which is a book of the liturgical chants of the Roman Rite year. I know what it is because I own one myself, having been part of the schola at a SSPX chapel for some years. If you have a chance, come visit St. Mary's, KS, and our new Immaculata Church. The bookstore on the main street perhaps sells some of these books you are restoring. God bless.
This is actually a Graduale Romanum but don’t ask me what the difference is lol. I’d love to come visit the Immaculata!!
He was predicted in the prophesies of Nuestra Señora del Buen Suceso de la Purifcation
I’ll have to look into it. Wild if true!
ca. 2.25. Fr Francois Laisney, SSPX is currently teaching catechesis here in the UK. I've shared this with him.
Amazing! I wonder if he knows who Dom Gatard OSB was. He made several notes in this Graduale. Please send Fr Laisney my greetings!
