  • Procedures for Reverencing the Tabernacle and the Altar Before, During and After Mass
    Procedures for Reverencing the Tabernacle and the Altar Before, During and After Mass Key Terms: Eucharist: The true presence of Christ in the form of his Body and Blood. During Mass, bread and wine are consecrated to become the Body and Blood of Christ. Whatever remains there are of the Body of Christ may be reserved and kept. Tabernacle: The box-like container in which the Eucharistic Bread may be reserved. Sacristy: The room in the church where the priest and other ministers prepare themselves for worship. Altar: The table upon which the bread and wine are blessed and made holy to become the Eucharist. Sanctuary: Often referred to as the Altar area, the Sanctuary is the proper name of the area which includes the Altar, the Ambo (from where the Scriptures are read and the homily may be given), and the Presider’s Chair. Nave: The area of the church where the majority of worshippers are located. This is where the Pews are. Genuflection: The act of bending one knee to the ground whilst making the sign of the Cross. Soon (maybe even next weekend – August 25-26) , the tabernacle will be re-located to behind the altar. How should I respond to the presence of the reserved Eucharist when it will now be permanently kept in the church sanctuary? Whenever you are in the church, you are in a holy place, walking upon holy ground. Everyone ought to be respectful of Holy Rosary Church as a house of worship and prayer. Respect those who are in silent prayer.

  • 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.

  • HISTORICAL ANTECEDENTS of ST. PIUS X's DECREE on FREQUENT COMMUNION JOHN A
    HISTORICAL ANTECEDENTS OF ST. PIUS X's DECREE ON FREQUENT COMMUNION JOHN A. HARDON, SJ. West Baden College HPHE highest tribute to the apostolic genius of St. Pius X was paid by * his successor on the day he raised him to the honors of the altar: "in the profound vision which he had of the Church as a society, Pius X recognized that it was the Blessed Sacrament which had the power to nourish its intimate life substantially, and to elevate it high above all other human societies." To this end "he overcame the prejudices springing from an erroneous practice and resolutely promoted frequent, even daily, Communion among the faithful," thereby leading "the spouse of Christ into a new era of Euchari^tic life."1 In order to appreciate the benefits which Pius X conferred on the Church by his decree on frequent Communion, we might profitably examine the past half-century to see how the practice which he advo­ cated has revitalized the spiritual life of millions of the faithful. Another way is to go back in history over the centuries preceding St. Pius and show that the discipline which he promulgated in 1905 is at once a vindication of the Church's fidelity to her ancient traditions and a proof of her vitality to be rid of whatever threatens to destroy her divine mission as the sanctifier of souls. The present study will follow the latter method, with an effort to cover all the principal factors in this Eucharistic development which had its roots in the apostolic age but was not destined to bear full fruit until the present time.

  • APRIL MESSENGER [email protected] Firstlcffmn.Com a NOTE from P ASTOR S AUL
    Issue 4, April 2015 First Lutheran 402 South Court Street Fergus Falls, MN 56537 218-739-3348 APRIL MESSENGER [email protected] Firstlcffmn.com A NOTE FROM P ASTOR S AUL WHAT EVERY LUTHERAN SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE LORD’S SUPPER Every year about this time, Pastor Jennifer and I meet with our fifth-graders and parents to help them learn about Holy communion. (They receive First Communion on Maundy Thursday, which is on April 2 this year.) I find it’s also a wonderful opportunity for the parents to get a “refresher course” on what they should have learned in confirmation about the Sacrament of the al- tar. Let me share a few of the highlights of what we teach: The Lord’s Supper is a physical means of experiencing God’s grace, through which we receive the gifts of forgiveness, salvation, and life – new life here and now, and eternal life after we die. The sacrament is a way of having our spiritual batteries re- charged. We go out from worship having been fed, and being re- energized to serve God and our neighbor in our daily lives. Holy Communion also helps us to live more confidently. In a rapidly changing and uncertain world, the sacraments provide us with a tangible means of understanding God’s gift to us. Baptism makes us children of God. Receiving the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper helps us to nourish and strengthen that relationship. Martin Luther, in opposition to some of the other Protestant re- formers, insisted on saying that Christ is truly present in this sacrament.

  • The Eucharistic Prayer: the Preface
    The Eucharistic Prayer: The Preface Our English words eucharist and eucharistic comes from the Greek word "eukaristos," which means "grateful” or “thanksgiving." It refers to the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper, in which bread and wine becomes the body and blood of Christ. It is used to refer to the full celebration of the Mass, though, as we have seen, the Mass is actually made up of both the Liturgy of the Word, and the Liturgy of the Eucharist. The term eucharist is also more narrowly used to refer to the bread and wine themselves which become the body and blood of Christ, Holy Communion. The Eucharistic prayer within which this consecration of the bread and wine is a great prayer of praise and thanksgiving to God for all the gifts we have received, the greatest of which is Jesus himself. After the preparation of the gifts the Eucharistic Prayer begins with the Preface. The Preface begins with the dialogue between the priest and congregation: The Lord be with you… And also with you. Lift up your hearts... We lift them up to the Lord. Let us give thanks to the Lord, our God… It is right to give him thanks and praise. (these words will change somewhat next year when the revisions in the Mass take effect). There are two particularly important things this dialogue tells us about the Eucharistic Prayer. The first is that the prayer involves all those present, and is not just the priest’s prayer, though he speaks most of the prayer alone. In years past, prior to the renewal of the Liturgy called for by the Second Vatican Council, the Mass was seen as something the priest did for or on behalf of the people who were basically passive observers rather than active participants.
