Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) Survey
5 years ago, quantify feeling interiorly TLM, vehicles, prove what is happening
2018 first study NO vs TLM 7 questions
2 different religions
Mass Attendance especially after Covid
18-39 yrs 98% attendance TLM, go out of town, find a Mass
West Point about 40 cadets
Annapolis about 60 midshipmen
Coast Guard finding TLM & Merchant Marines Holy Innocents in city
TLM is masculine, militaristic vibe, marching towards God
Not just military
Confirmed Catholics, fighting for the Church
Military life & Religious life similarities natural Law order, peace, purpose
2 Surveys compared
Birth rate demographics role over if not prepared
TLM upwards, older women in TLM contracepted, younger women never contracepted

Large family during Covid been a substance so many people to depend upon
49% male, 51% female
57% responded as male, traditional Mass attractive more masculine
8% is phenomenal uptick, not marginal
Future Research Efforts
