Pictured below is photo I took on a recent Autumn pilgrimage through the south of France. We had Mass on the French Riviera in Nice at Saint-Jacques-le-Majeur (aka the Église du Gesù) , under the care of the priests of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest. Throughout Mass I kept thinking how important it is for Catholics to understand Psalm 42. The thought came to me: have Catholics been taught much about it? It is such an important and powerful prayer. It is at the heart of the beginning of the Extraordinary Form.
