From the archive — Sacrosanctum Concilium

Votive Mass of the Blessed Sacrament at St. Bernard of Clairvaux, Plainfield on Feb. 24, 1965. This was the first mass celebrated using the revised liturgy set out by the Sacrosanctum Concilium. More than 1,500 people attended, filling both the church and the school cafeteria, which was set up with a television feed to allow overflow crowds to view the mass.
