"Traditional Catholic Church"

Today the Traditional Catholic Church celebrates Rogation Monday. About the year 470, Saint Mamertus, Bishop of Vienne, in France, introduced processions and the public recitation of Litanies, after the calamities that had afflicted that country. In the time of Leo III (d. 816) these so called "Rogations" came to be observed in Rome and were given the name of "Lesser Litanies" to distinguish them from the "Greater Litanies" which had been previously established in the Holy City by Saint Gregory the Great (about 598), for April 25, Feast of Saint Mark, These "Rogations" are earnest prayers to ward off calamities and obtain God's blessings upon the crops.
