I'm an Italian priest belonging to the Diocese of Frosinone-Veroli-Ferentino.
I apologize for my English, I hope you can understand me.
It's a long time I've been following your web-site NLM and I thank you and all your team for the excellent work you're doing for the God's glory and for His Church.
I'm trying to do something similar to Fr. Samuel F. Weber's work for italian liturgy and, after the work he published on your web-site some days ago, I dare ask you for a plea. My desire is to carry out a Gradual Simplex in Italian language. If there's anybody in Italy interested in joining this plan he can contact me at my e-mail address: respa.gm@libero.it
I'm very grateful to you for the care you show for the liturgy and for the Holy Father.
God bless all of us.

Dear Steven van Roode,
unfortunately my initiative about the Graduale Simplex had no success because nobody offered his contribution (it probably means that in Italy nobody is interested in something like this). Anyway, I really compliment with you for your work.
As I haven't renounced to my project, I hope to have much more time a day to dedicate to my initiative.
I'll keep you informed.
Yours in Christ,
Father Giacinto Mancini
