The Order for Holy Communion And the angel saith unto me, “Write this: Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb.” Revelation 19:9 Bold text is said by everyone in the congregation. Red text, called rubrics, offers instructions on how to preform the liturgy. A red cross † inserted in the text marks instances when it is customary to make the sign of the cross. Each hymn number is listed in the bulletin and on the hymn board on the right front wall of the Nave. Regarding postures, as a general rule we stand to sing, sit to listen and kneel to pray. Anglican Moments: The Lord’s Supper The Order for the Administration of is called by many names; Holy The Lord’s Supper Communion, the Eucharist, the Mass, etc. It is also called or The Divine Liturgy.

  • Low Requiem Mass

    Low Requiem Mass

    REQUIEM LOW MASS FOR TWO SERVERS The Requiem Mass is very ancient in its origin, being the predecessor of the current Roman Rite (i.e., the so- called “Tridentine Rite”) of Mass before the majority of the gallicanizations1 of the Mass were introduced. And so, many ancient features, in the form of omissions from the normal customs of Low Mass, are observed2. A. Interwoven into the beautiful and spiritually consoling Requiem Rite is the liturgical principle, that all blessings are reserved for the deceased soul(s) for whose repose the Mass is being celebrated. This principle is put into action through the omission of these blessings: 1. Holy water is not taken before processing into the Sanctuary. 2. The sign of the Cross is not made at the beginning of the Introit3. 3. C does not kiss the praeconium4 of the Gospel after reading it5. 4. During the Offertory, the water is not blessed before being mixed with the wine in the chalice6. 5. The Last Blessing is not given. B. All solita oscula that the servers usually perform are omitted, namely: . When giving and receiving the biretta. When presenting and receiving the cruets at the Offertory. C. Also absent from the Requiem Mass are all Gloria Patris, namely during the Introit and the Lavabo. D. The Preparatory Prayers are said in an abbreviated form: . The entire of Psalm 42 (Judica me) is omitted; consequently the prayers begin with the sign of the Cross and then “Adjutorium nostrum…” is immediately said. After this, the remainder of the Preparatory Prayers are said as usual.
  • 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.

Grave of Father Thomas Merton at Gethsemane, Kentucky "This is what I think about the Latin and the chant: they are masterpieces, which offer us an irreplaceable monastic and Christian experience. They have a force, an energy, a depth without equal … As you know, I have many friends in the world who are artists, poets, authors, editors, etc. Now they are well able to appre- ciate our chant and even our Latin. But they are all, without exception, scandalized and grieved when I tell them that probably this Office, this Mass will no longer be here in ten years. And that is the worst.

    These Notes Are Intended to Help the Families Or Friends of Those Arranging a Requiem Mass in Our Churches

    These notes are intended to help the families or friends of those arranging a Requiem Mass in our churches. What to do The first step is to speak to the Funeral Directors. Tell them that the deceased person is a Catholic and that you wish to arrange the Requiem Mass. They will then contact the parish priest and fix a time and day. The Funeral Directors deal with all the costs. Burial or Cremation? Burial has always been the tradition of the Church, because it expresses more fully the belief in the Resurrection of the Body. However, cremation is permitted, provided that it is not a deliberate statement contrary to Christian belief. The ash remains should normally be given the dignity of a burial. Reception into Church The body comes into Church with a brief liturgy on the evening before the funeral. It is generally kept by those who frequented the church often in their lives. If you wish this to happen, you should tell the Funeral Directors. Order of Service The texts of the Requiem Mass are laid down in the Roman Missal. There are some choices, which you may make: the scripture readings and the hymns (if desired). You may wish to have an Order of Service printed for the funeral. The Funeral Directors may do this, but you should have it approved by the parish priest first. The wording on the front of the Order of Service should always be “Requiem Mass for the Repose of the Soul of...” Phrases such as “Celebration of the Life of ...” or “Thanksgiving for the Life of...” do not reflect Christian belief and should NOT be used for funerals that take place in church.

You are probably familiar with audiences? responses to very convincing magic tricks. People respond with incredulity to great illusions. They sit there thinking ?how did he do that?? In the absence of an answer, they begin to take seriously the idea that something unexplained is going on. And this is where the fear sets in.You are the same. You observe your own emotions at times with similar incredulity. But this time the discomfort and the fear is more personal, and unlike the magician?s audience, you can?t run away.Now imagine that you were told exactly how the magician performs his illusion, then watched it again. You wouldn?t feel a moment?s discomfort. The same resolution can be offered for your own internal mysteries, but the question here to ask is not, ?how did he do that?? but instead, ?what?s wrong with me??What?s Wrong With You? answers that question and by the time you finish it, you too will be able to observe your own emotional illusions with the peace of mind of a knowledgeable spectator.It outlines seven logical steps which will teach your conscious mind an awareness of your own emotional condition.
