The Pastor’s Page Both science and history of Church HOW INCENSE AT MASS practice confirm the purifying ability of burning frankincense during religious MIGHT REDUCE services. The Catholic Church has used incense during religious services for mil- AIRBORNE DISEASES lennia. Even before Christianity, Isra- elites used incense in worship, as the Psalmist records, “Let my prayer be incense before you; my uplifted hands an evening offering” (Psalm 141:2). Incense became a central part of the Church’s liturgy, not only because of its symbolism, but also on account of medicinal benefits. For example, in the famous Spanish church of Santiago de Compostela, medieval Christians created a large incense burner called the “Botafumeiro.” According to Atlas Obscura, “the incense…served to mask the smell of tired and unwashed pilgrims who crowded into the pews. It was also believed to have a preventative effect against [the] plague.” Recently various scientific studies have confirmed the surprisingly purifying effects of frankincense. One such study aimed to “test the effectiveness of their in situ application to cleanse microbially-contaminated air within the ambient of an investigated 17th-century church.” The results of the study explained that, “The anti- microbial properties of essential oil derived from frankincense, a compound with well-known traditional use, showed that it possesses a clear potential as a natural antimicrobial agent. Moreover, the results suggest possible application of B. carteri EO vapor and incense fume as occasional air purifiers in sacral ambients, apart from daily church rituals.” An article on the website Healthline claims “that burning myrrh and frankincense incense reduced airborne bacterial counts by 68%.” Another study looked at frankincense essential oil and how it has anti-inflammation and anticancer effects. Furthermore, it has been proven that burning frankincense even has the power to decrease depression. According to the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, “Burning frankincense (resin from the Boswellia plant) activates poorly understood ion channels in the brain to allevi- ate anxiety or depression. This suggests that an entirely new class of depression and anxiety drugs might be right under our noses.” However, too much incense, especially when it is not pure frankincense, but mixed with other substances, can have harmful effects on the respiratory system. This was confirmed in a study that looked at religious practices in Asian countries where incense smoke engulfs an entire building and includes a combination of other burning substances. Some medical professionals in China have even moved to put a “warning label” on incense sticks because of its harmful smoke. This is why incense use in church buildings needs to moni- tored, keeping in mind those who suffer from asthma and other similar respiratory problems. The size of the room, purity of the incense and volume used all play a role in how it affects those present. Many incense manufacturers have been introducing hypoallergenic incense for this reason. Could it be used in churches to fight COVID-19? There are no scientific studies that would provide any direct evidence burning frankincense could kill such viruses. However, it can be said that there are many spiritual and health benefits to using incense during Mass and was used by Christians in the past to fight against vari- ous plagues and epidemics.

  • A Comparison of the Two Forms of the Roman Rite

    A Comparison of the Two Forms of the Roman Rite

    A Comparison of the Two Forms of the Roman Rite Mass Structures Orientation Language The purpose of this presentation is to prepare you for what will very likely be your first Traditional Latin Mass (TLM). This is officially named “The Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.” We will try to do that by comparing it to what you already know - the Novus Ordo Missae (NOM). This is officially named “The Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite.” In “Mass Structures” we will look at differences in form. While the TLM really has only one structure, the NOM has many options. As we shall see, it has so many in fact, that it is virtually impossible for the person in the pew to determine whether the priest actually performs one of the many variations according to the rubrics (rules) for celebrating the NOM. Then, we will briefly examine the two most obvious differences in the performance of the Mass - the orientation of the priest (and people) and the language used. The orientation of the priest in the TLM is towards the altar. In this position, he is facing the same direction as the people, liturgical “east” and, in a traditional church, they are both looking at the tabernacle and/or crucifix in the center of the altar. The language of the TLM is, of course, Latin. It has been Latin since before the year 400. The NOM was written in Latin but is usually performed in the language of the immediate location - the vernacular.

  • The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler

    The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler

    The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler Cardinal Alfons Stickler, retired prefect of the Vatican Archives and Library, is normally reticent. Not so during his trip to the New York area in May [1995]. Speaking at a conference co-sponsored by Fr. John Perricon's ChistiFideles and Howard Walsh's Keep the Faith, the Cardinal scored Catholics within the fold who have undermined the Church—and in the final third of his speech made clear his view that the "Mass of the post-Conciliar liturgical commission" was a betrayal of the Council fathers. The robust 84-year-old Austrian scholar, a Salesian who served as peritus to four Vatican II commissions (including Liturgy), will celebrate his 60th anniversary as a priest in 1997. Among his many achievements: The Case for Clerical Celibacy (Ignatius Press), which documents that the celibate priesthood was mandated from the earliest days of the Church. Cardinal Stickler lives at the Vatican. The Tridentine Mass means the rite of the Mass which was fixed by Pope Pius V at the request of the Council of Trent and promulgated on December 5, 1570. This Missal contains the old Roman rite, from which various additions and alterations were removed. When it was promulgated, other rites were retained that had existed for at least 200 years. Therefore, is more correct to call this Missal the liturgy of Pope Pius V. Faith and Liturgy From the very beginning of the Church, faith and liturgy have been intimately connected. A clear proof of this can be found in the Council of Trent itself.

Effective September 14, 2007, Pope Benedict XVI loosened the restrictions on the use of the 1962 Missal, such that the special permission of the bishop is no longer required. This action was taken because, as universal shepherd, His Holiness has a heart for the unity of the Church, and sees the option of allowing a more generous use of the Mass of 1962 as a way to foster that unity and heal any breaches that may have occurred after Vatican II.

The extensive timelines have been broken into ten stages, drawing attention to a number of periods and reasons in the history of those eras for the unique experience of vernacular liturgy and the issues connected with it in the Western Catholic Church of our time.

  • Modern Alternative Popes*

    Modern Alternative Popes*

    Modern Alternative Popes* Magnus Lundberg Uppsala University The Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) is arguably the most important event in modern Catholicism, and a major act on the twentieth-century religious scene at large. On several points, the conciliar fathers made changes in how the Catholic Church perceived the modern world. The language in the decrees was different from earlier councils’, and the bishops opened up for ecumenism and interreligious dialogue, seeing at least “seeds of truth” in other religious traditions. The conciliar fathers also voted in favour of liberty of religion, as meaning something more than the right to practise Catholic faith. A very concrete effect of the Council was the introduction of the New Mass Order (Novus Ordo Missae) in 1969 that replaced the traditional Roman rite, decreed by Pius V in 1570. Apart from changes in content, under normal circumstances, the new mass should be read in the vernacular, not in Latin as before. Though many Catholics welcomed the reforms of Vatican II, many did not. In the period just after the end of the Council, large numbers of priests and nuns were laicized, few new priest candidates entered the seminaries, and many laypeople did not recognize the church and the liturgy, which they had grown up with. In the post- conciliar era, there developed several traditionalist groups that criticized the reforms and in particular the introduction of the Novus Ordo. Their criticism could be more or less radical, and more or less activist. Many stayed in their parishes and attended mass there, but remained faithful to traditional forms of devotions and paid much attention to modern Marian apparitions.

    Tridentine Community News May 23, 2010 Beyond the New English Ordinary Form Missal: 6. It is not pastorally appropriate to suggest that the judgment of Other Issues With Approved Translations – Part 3 the Canadian and American bishops in approving the NRSV and NAB translations may have been flawed. Our bishops did so In Part 2 of this column series, we compared English translations recognizing that these particular translations were the work of of the Holy Bible. We provided an example of the same passage Catholic, Protestant, Eastern Orthodox, and Jewish scholarly of Holy Scripture as translated in the Douay-Rheims Bible (used translating teams whose focus was accuracy. They are direct in most translations of the Extraordinary Form of Holy Mass), the responses to Pope Pius XII’s encyclical and eminently suitable. New American Bible (used in the Ordinary Form in the United States), and the New Revised Standard Version (used in the A Clarification of Our Own Thoughts Ordinary Form in Canada). Our argument was that the Douay’s use of hierarchical language when addressing God, along with We cannot be cafeteria Catholics. We cannot accuse liberal other reverent constructs of English, are particularly fitting Catholics of picking and choosing what they like, if we of a more expressions of the content of the Bible, consistent with traditional bent are guilty of the same. Our column was not meant commonly-found English translations of the Ordinary and to suggest that we approached the topic from a perspective of Orations of the Tridentine Mass. Biblical expertise. Quite the contrary: this author is relatively unfamiliar with the Holy Bible, and is not qualified to debate, for We are always open to corrections and differing views.
